If I Lose The Poem Poem by Shalom Freedman

If I Lose The Poem



IF I LOSE THE POEM

If I lose the Poem
I will lose myself-
Words will be too difficult for me
I will wander in the world useless -

True, one day I will not be.
But for now
And for as long as possible
I need the Poem.

If I lose the Poem
I will cease to be
And all the Poetry that has been in me
Will also seem lost.

I waver and wonder
As I write
These plain and simple words.
