I have no words.

Zero 

none

My mind is blurred.

 

How do I say what I want to say

Words can’t describe my day!

I have many thoughts and intelligent ones too, 

But I can’t even find the right words for a simple haiku.


I have a vast vocabulary.

I can usually make pretty good commentary,

But words just can’t find the right time and place in my mind


I know what I want to say. 

I just can’t think of the words to say it. 


 I’d rather be in a ballet dancing all day not allowed to speak one word, 

because frankly,  

 I wouldn’t know what to say anyway. 


You know that feeling of having a loss of words.


Sometimes words just can’t describe the vibes you’re feeling

Sometimes words just can’t describe what you're thinking about

Sometimes words just can’t describe what you hear or see.


Words can’t describe how much I love my cute and playful dog

Words can’t describe how much I hate writing with dialogue


Words can’t describe how much food means to me

Words can't describe how much I love swimming in the sea. 


Words can’t describe

Words can’t find the right place in my mind 


You know that feeling of having a loss of words,

Your mind is a mush of letters and phrases,

Your mouth is open


 unable to talk.


I know what I want to say.

I just can’t think of the right words to say it.


The author's comments:

I wrote this poem to be purposely simple and almost elementary in order to make it relatable and convey the difficulty I often experience in getting my point across.
