Predilection (pantoum) by David R Spellman
Driven to write, while stalled by doubt Why pen this paper with deepened thought Who cares if heard these words I'd spout The passing moments in ink I've caught
Why pen this paper with deepened thought Spilling my heart of loves I've lost The passing moments in ink I've caught Upon these seas, so turned and tossed
Spilling my heart of loves I've lost Spinning tales, some true, some false Upon these seas, so turned and tossed Moments of calm, my lifelong waltz
Spinning tales, some true, some false Of wandering dreams or visions found Moments of calm, my lifelong waltz Exposing my soul, how its been bound
Of wandering dreams or visions found Who cares if heard these words I'd spout Exposing my soul, how its been bound Driven to write, while stalled by doubt
