Words
Tongue-tied again.
My words flipping around like a dying fish,
still carrying that "edge" you speak of though.

I tripped and fell onto my hands,
  spilling and scattering my words everywhere.
Tears flow down my cheeks as I try to pick them all up.
I can't bare the thought of losing my tangible mind.

Letters and phrases carpet the floor.
 
I don't want to lose this part of my Self.
My past.
I'm just not strong yet,
I still fall in his shadow,
  just outside his heart.

The salty water causes the ink to run.
I've ruined it all.
 
I grasp the mush that is left,
  it will have to suffice for awhile.
Until I can write again.
