Denial

Write,

I SAID,

WRITE.

Why?

……..

Words hold meaning.

To ME.

Yet,

I'm denied.

Your work not accepted;

NOT ACCEPTED.

That's the only response received,

Not ONCE but TWICE.

Am I… A FAILURE?

Do my words not hold enough power?

Do I lack what is needed to be accepted?

….

Wrong,

Try again,

AGAIN, and

Again.

Maybe this time it will be enough,

Or will I be correct to stand

in denial?

YOU tell me,

AM I enough,

THIS TIME?
