What shows
how little
we know?
What can be is
oft far less than
what we expect.
What is now
has never been
what it was.

If we write a little more will we finally see the pint we are trying to make?
Will we uncover the truth hidden by our emotions, or will our true feelings be blocked by the need to wholly express ourselves? It can happen.
We struggle with words.
We fumble with our thoughts, raw and on the page before us, and we cannot make any sense of what we want to say.
Our journals are full of thoughts, pages, stanzas, lines, and words. Some have been erased, some are illegible.
It gets messy.
Still, we want to write our way out of this mess.
