The poet lifts his pen
To free the sleeping voice
A language cloaked in beauty
All thoughts now spill the ink.
And the turbulence of love and pain
Lay etched for all to see
A tapestry of dormant words
Are now flowing fast and free.

I like the continuing thought of waking the sleeping voice to weave a "tapestry of dormant words" into the second verse.
