Perhaps

The ink has run dry
In the poet’s pen
Perhaps there’s no words
Perhaps there never has been

The feeble scratches
Making its mark
Perhaps there’s no purpose
Perhaps they’re empty and stark

The creased edges
Etched in the eyes
Perhaps there’s no need
Perhaps they’re meaningless tries

The twisted phrases
Transcribed with tears
Perhaps there’s no point
Perhaps they’re just wasted year

Sssh.

I'm with people
Yet
I work alone
And
I talk to people
Still
I speak alone
Hush
I smile at strangers
But
I walk alone
Sshh I am alone
Be silent
I am alone
