WHAT WORDS CAN DO.

Last night while under the gaze of the moon
My mind raced through my thoughts -
I thought I was dead.

I became thus lifeless as my thought's thought;
Going blank, with eyes
Trading with unending tears fixed on me.

I died in my thoughts
Yet, onlookers didn't pronounce me dead,
Thus I didn't die -
For in their words lies the power to die or to live.

I am Emmanuel
