a word

 

If you could write a word, would you?

 

Is it enough to write a word,

        for him, if not you?

 

If you could write a word, 

        who would you be writing to?

 

Would you like its sound?

 Would you like its taste, 

            swishing around your mouth?

 

If you could write a word

would you keep it to yourself

        or send it up north, 

                to live a life unfelt?

you have here leo. However, the spaces keep distracting me. I think you really don't need them, do you?

thank you, the formatting on here is different than I would like, but when its printed out I wanted the format to include the spaces, just a different style!

You can leave it as simple formating and work out the spaces as you wish. Too much spaces distract the reader's attention which no one needs.
