I Want To Be Your First Line
Write me into your poetry. Let me be your muse.
I don’t want to be your “first time,”
I want to be your first line.
I want to hear your voice
muttering metaphors,
me, trembling within the timbre of your verses,
perfectly imperfect in their performance.
An untrained tongue
tasked with unrestrained love,
leaking from your lips like similes.
You’ll have me ensconced in your stanzas
and hanging onto your every word…
Touch my heart with ink stained finger tips
and tear away my patchwork walls,
because I want to be your poetry.
About the Creator
Caitlyn Wenzel
I don't live to write, I write to live.
Poetry is what I need in order to feel human again, and again.
Let me transform the unspeakable.
I hope my words can reach you.

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
