When Words Come

They say when words come to you they are like raindrops falling from the sky

An endless downpour of thoughts and emotions that wrap you so tightly

You have to cut the string

They say when words come to you they create beauty and darkness at the same time

They say beauty is a fine wine

And darkness is a bad aftertaste

They say your words have to be extraordinary, but I don't think they are extraordinary

My words are ink on a piece of paper, smeared because I didn't believe they were right

My words were a pothole in an otherwise perfect road, a rock surrounded by jewels, a life full of horrible experiences that never ended

Then they say it doesn't matter,

What? I ask

They replied, they are your words, why should we say anything different?
