Let words be..

Whilst gently being dragged across
by insolent ink flowing without sense of loss;
Hear them screech under the sharpness of the nip,
As if being flung from a dizzying cliff.

Feel them suffocate under the imprint of numerous feet,
Trampled while grazing on the busy hectic street;
Dumped with indifference after a careless sight
Even if they did once soothe one's plight!

Necessity they are, sometimes luxury too,
Much sought after to gather as possessions new;

Watch them being ruthlessly used, stretch to fit in context
Their rare essence lost! Lost in volumes of text!

I earnestly say, Let words be!
Let them dwell in thoughts, lest they flee..
Let them hover in space, traversing times old and new
Selfishly let them paint pictures, pictures just for you!

  3. Whoav. Brilliant. The idea in itself is quite brilliant. The carelessness with which we use words. Indeed! Very well thought, and a beautifully *restrained* rhyme.
    Hope to see some more of this chaos and anger that reflects well on your writing, but not on you. :p
