Prose – Until My Hands Should Waver


– Until My Hands Should Waver –

As children,
we are denied our thirst for knowledge,
only able to feel the hunger
of the hearts desires that quell within us
as life begins to unfold its tattered pages.

This life is my story;
There is safety in the pages of me,
and until my hands should waver,
I will hold tightly to my unwritten self.
