English stutters
on and on
reinforcing something wrong
with what I say and what I do
to enforce the words I use for you
Less and less
I see myself
in time's to come
in perfect health and sound mind
with you and me
it's plain to see
how difficult that road would be
Days gone by
shrugging off all the signs
never colouring outside the lines
words choked back
drowned in doubt
back and forth
to and fro
no room to know, to grow
More and more
I find the words
for you, as I write, as I read
the english finds the words to feed -
My troubled brain
and there it was
that was fast
and suddenly I realize
...It was me who was stuttering all along
Author notes
BAM! There it is. Sorry it took so long. Did I pass?

It's nice to see you writing again
You write so well, I like this line "never colouring outside the lines"
and "drowned in doubt" is also good, that whole stanza I like actually
