    "Shhhhhh Juslisten"
    One day it'll come,
    the answer lies beyond the tongue
    In the space between words and thoughts is where I reside
    But at times,
    I find it difficult to find my way home
    so I wander,
    squandering precious moments,
    thinking noisy thoughts
    exhausting every bit of energy
    propelling me deeper into the land of the lost.
    Then suddenly I remember the answer.
    And just like that,
    I silence my thoughts.

    I dig this piece. To me you are talking about inspiration for a writer.. "In the space between words and thoughts is where I reside" is a great line...but I think you should change it to "the space in between words and thoughts..." To me it flows better...but what do I know. Nice job.

    Again, I love the concepts here. I am more inclined to this type of poem. But most people want definite concrete descriptions to hold the hand of this concept through the idea of the poem. It is a two-fer thing. I am not always good at it mself, but see it for what it is. Give the blind something to see, and the thoughtful something to think about. Together it makes a great union.

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
