What do you think this poem is about?

Expressions

What could I write with a pen in hand?
My mind wants to wander, but my feet have not been.
Can the page be a place to reveal my picture?
A snap shot of thoughts orbiting vivid and clear.
Can my creations strum chords that will penetrate and heal?
Exposing expressions that are no longer smeared.

    write with your soul
    no less, no more
    mind faster
    than footstep
    footstep faster
    than a pen
    but pen can
    do everything

    thanks.md
