Bravery

Whenever I try to speak,
words melt as soon as
they leave my lips
and have no meaning.

Whenever I write,
I can talk to my heart
and everything is
perfectly worded in poetry.

How brave I am,
to not run away
when I fail to socialize
with a broken world.

How brave I am,
to come alive in poetry
and have it be
what saves me in the end.

This is beautifully written, and undeniably relatable. Well done. I wouldn't change a thing about it.
