Apology Poem by Anamika Goswami

I shall never write my own verse.

Words infest my brain.
They remain dissolved in me.
They swim down my senses, tickle me.
Yet I will not allow them to flow my ink well.

I will not write of lonely nights with myself.
I will not write of my innumerable humiliations.
I will not write of my first wet dream.
I will not write about my inability to write.

I shall never write my own verse.
One does not pollute feelings with ink.
