A scroll for every stroll

I talk to myself while I walk

Scrawl mental syntax on the sidewalk
in my head

Things I could've done
Sentences I should've said

This has all been said before
but I'll say it all again
Mouthing it to myself
by the beat of my footstep

What's a whisper - is it different
than writing words with pen?
Does it hold any less significance
if it's only been half said?

Each stride, an invisible lacuna divides
the line breaks of my restive mind.
