![]() Wordless Poetry; Ode to ConfidenceA Poem by Nish Nish the FishI want to contort my body in such a way, to express my stiffness.
I want to show someone the delicate, glass-like nature of my voice, without speaking to them.
I want to show someone the warmth of my physical embrace, without touching them,
And I want them to soak in the enormous amount of happiness that I’ve collected, without ever letting them see me smile.
I want someone to shudder in my presence, because I have the world to offer.
I want them to see the sparkling crystals in my eyes that could light up a black hole, even while I’m sleeping.
I want to ensure someone of my stunning beauty that illuminates on the darkest of Halloween nights, while I’m wearing the scariest of masks.
I want someone to be aware of my artistic potential, even when my canvas is blank,
And I want them to know the rainbow of colors in my life, although the shirt i'm wearing is white.
I want people to see the flower buds that blossom with my touch, keeping in mind my lack of experience in maintaining a garden.
I want to think I’m pretty without being called self absorbed. I want to feel confident without being considered as insensitive. I want to be nice without being accused of my so called innocence.
I want to believe in science without being told that I’m going to hell.
I want to love life without being questioned about my hidden sorrows. I want to promote peace without being called a hypocrite
And, I want to write a poem, without using any words.
