&quot;One child, one teacher, one pen and one book can change the world.&quot; <br /> -Malala Yousafzai


I wish I could say
something more,
but if in my quiet,
I could explore
I’d be unknown.

I wish I could do
something more
but if in my solitude
I could have no remorse
and I’d have nothing to show.

Love,
as I have known it to be,
I wish I could feel
something so,
If it were real
or if it were all faux
and that dream dies with my soul.

I wrote this poem about my experiences with differing forms and levels of love I experienced and how they all seemed hopeless or embarrassing in the end result.
