don’t know how to start.

no idea what to say in the middle.
not sure how to filter the words
go back and fix it
if you’re sure
maybe you’ll save it

no idea how to make it something beautiful.
all these thoughts all mixed up in your mind
you’re pretty sure
nobody else really gets it
but to you, it’s all there
your life
in the lines

no idea how to make sure they get it.
how to show them the beauty you set down so clear
can’t tell them how hard it is
they won’t believe it
and if you find someone like you
it’s not what you wanted

don’t know how to end.
run through the beginning
scroll back up and save it with your other bits
the lost pieces of your soul
your poems
