Speechless

sometimes words fall short
as feelings grow tall
and you’re left feeling
unable to speak


sometimes the thoughts
that rumble and ramble within
are incapable of
joining the english language


sometimes when I look at you
from the corner of my eye
there’s a thud in my chest
and it echoes through my toes


sometimes there are no words
to define the indefinable
express the inexpressible
describe the indescribable


sometimes three short words
eight tiny letters
are enough
when coupled by you
