 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

Words have often failed me



Words have often failed me when I've needed them the most
leaving all that should be spoken all but quiet
it's like searching through a landscape built for just my pleasure
but finding only darkness in the night….
no matter how noble the foundation my walls will always crumble
leaving all I am exposed and lost at sea
there's a truth that's born inside me
that both gathers and divides me
but always leaves me searching to be free.
