Pieces of me

And without the words to flow through
To fill the gaps,
How do I tell you,
Who am I?

How do you know
What I am made of?

That without words
I'm stranger than the unknown.

And nothing would suffice
The hunger that gnaws at me
That I couldn't give you leave
To call on me.

Without words to hold me
To tether me to the ground,
I fear the danger of floating away
Into the darkness.

Oh, but to sustain!
To thrive on the words;
To let them shape me
To let them breathe life into me.

Would you then understand?
To give you my words
Is like giving a piece of me.
