No Words

poem by: Annie Kirby
Written on Jan 26, 2021

i have no words
just emptiness upon my mind
thoughts with their meaning
melt to nothing
i sit, pen in hand staring
at blank pages

the minute, the hour, the day
on a continuous loop
lost without my words
i thought they were
a part of me, mine forever

my alphabet
to say, write, sing and rhyme
and now they hide from me
behind shadows - and the
few i catch make no sense

they creep through my fingers
how few are left
what will become of me
without my words

will i fade into the nothing
that i am - no thoughts in my head
just emptiness looking for my
alphabet - to say, write, sing
and rhyme
