 Mengyu Wu WonderingsThat I don't know                                              that you know             how to write                                        That I know                          a decent poem.                                        if you know                                 I don't know                                  I don't know                                           if you know                                                                                                That I try really hard                       Wonderings                                                              to express my                                                                                                                                          feelings in                                                      words                                                                                                        of ink and graphite                                                                                                   But when I see                                                                                       the fresh white paper                                                                                                  Neatly lined and                                                                                        a bit crumpled in the                                                                                                  corners                                                                                             My mind                                                                                   once full of ideas                                                                               and thoughts                                                                             becomes a blank slate                                                                           Just like the paper                                              Before                                         I sketch, I erase     I scribble, I cross out            Every scratch of my pencil   Is a scratch on my head     If only there was      a way to spill out         all my emotions and watch them         assemble into words        Beautiful, meaningful        words            of anger and joy          success and failure      So that the elusive essence of my heart's story       is finally captured between the light blue lines,            gleaming vividly on        the crumpled white paper.
