ode to my pen

words words words
words for this and words for that
when i find the words i want
release, and peace,
a sense of me
simply from phonemes
consonants and vowels
gathered together
delicious sounds
tantalize my tastebuds
more than chocolate
i savour each note
the curve of my pen
and as i write
i remember
that i am whole
again.
