The Sequence of Events

To speak and not be heard,
To express and find them deaf,
To care so deeply and be so helpless,
To have done so little,
To have done nothing,
To wish and break,
To put back together in shambles,
To never be able to,
To leap and be shot out of the sky,
Is to fall flat,
Is to stick a very fine shoe into one's own mouth every morning,
It is enough to pull out every hair.

And when you are wrecked,
You have lived just a tad.
