she writes a poem

By: Michelle Chan

words fill the pages

the pages fill the void

void an existence

and her head is filled with these words

not knowing their meaning

she writes but the words lose reason

she writes and the words are empty

she lives without understanding

the meaning lost in time

the meaning, she sought for it.



from her head to the void

from the void to the pages

and on those word-filled pages

meaning found.
