For all those introverts and internal processors out there, who think a million thoughts before they say a single word. I hear ya!
You don't speak
Just to fill the silence.
Words come easy
But don't get wasted.
Often your eyes
Communicate your thoughts
And speech
Is only secondary
As for me
Words get in the way
Or can't be found
Amongst the clutter and dust
Rather than resting
While they emerge
I stumble about
And add to the mess
But with you
I won't worry
'Cos you patiently wait
As I look around
When I catch them
At last
I hold them
Tight in my grasp
But before I let go
And release them aloud
You already knew
What I was trying to say
Very sincere and beautiful prose, it reads like a million thoughts occurred before a word was written down.
