Like water they find their way to ground.
I will have names to give and stories to tell
words to whisper words to sing
words of reason and madness.
Some defy gravity, others will carry the weight.
At times my words will stumble over unfamiliar ground,
stutter, tie my tongue.
Silence will gain the upper hand.
While the quiet gathers momentum
I will close my eyes
and wait for the water to rise.
