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.
Do you know?
