Plethora Of Words

By Affaf Sheikh

Plethora of words
Captivate my mind,
Words heal my oozing lesions.
My words soothe me,
Enthrall my soul,
I can’t imagine my life,
Without them.
These voiceless words
Shout out loud,
In a crowd or to yourself.
These words engrave me.
I spellbound world
By creating magic with my words.
They are a reason to escape,
From demons within
And ground for my survival.
