center word

I draw 7 tiles 
trying to build 
off the center word
in this Scrabble of life

nothing I can construct 
from this soul of vowels 
no consonants 
in my heart 

the game plays on 
your turn is quick 
your tiles better 
your heart unscathed 

no words to make 
to lead me forward 
after the board is folded 
and the game put away
