Writer


I am a writer
living in words
I may be read
I may be heard
but as a person
I am unknown
for no one has cared to know
all I have known
I'm left alone
I'm on my own

I live in this world of words
because I don't know who to trust
everyone has betrayed me
or simply walked away

I live in this world of worlds
because it keeps my mind alive
my door remains open but
nobody cares to stay

most of this life I've reached out to others
lending a helping hand wherever I could
opening my heart and welcoming love as it came
and sometimes it felt very good

once I had a big home and many things
those I welcomed took everything they could
leaving me alone here with only my words
and sometimes that does not feel good

I live in this world of words
because it is all I have left
the expressions of my heart
for all to read and hear

right here in this world of words
you can discover me
but how can I know you
how do you appear

how do you care
how do you share
are there conditions and rules

do you hold back
alter the facts
play some game you learned in schools

can you imagine unconditional love
can you begin to share it
can you imagine unconditional trust
can you begin to hear it

I live in this world of words
nothing is hidden from view
all I want to do is share
I wait here for you

I live in this world of words
seeking whatever is true
what lives in your heart and mind
what is true for you
and what do you do

how do you care
how do you share
do you possess or embrace

do you demand
do you understand
that nothing in this world is at your command

can you imagine unconditional love
can you begin to feel it
can you imagine unconditional trust
can you share it for real

I live in this world of words
waiting for someone who can
all I want to be in this life
is an honest man

I live in this world of words
where I know what is true
how do you create your life
what is true for you
what do you do

I am a writer
living in words
I may be read
I may be heard
but as a person
I am unknown
for no one has cared to know
all I have known
I'm left alone
I'm on my own
