Cost

 

I think of words to fill blank spaces

Past written words have left very few traces

What is the value of spoken words in time?

Any that are offensive, are quickly claimed not mine

Today’s struggle has no change

I think to the point that makes me deranged

I fill the blank spaces for you to read

Is this for me or is it to feed your greed?

No currency changes hands to be lost

If there were, would it cover the emotional cost?
