Expression is never clear 

Without the vocabulary. 

Learning is power,

But peer understanding 

Is soul food—

Ambrosial nectar 

Bubbling in your brain

Balm on your thoughts. 

I want to be understood so bad,

And my beloved tries so hard.

But the responsibility to speak 

Is ultimately at my feet.

I need words 

To be understood.

Staying alive is necessary 

To learn these magical words. 

Once I achieve complete communication 

And full knowing

Then I’ll decide if this is worth living

Or if I want to fly, fly away.
