Words

By Jessica McGibbon

I have more words then I can understand

But I don't know how to use the knowledge in my hands

My mind can't recall what it learns

It has too many twists and turns

Passage after passage of lessons and facts

But remembrance is the knowledge that I lack

It's not that I forgot

Its all jumbled up and lost

I want to remember

But I don't know how

I wonder what I've really learned by now

What wisdom have I really gained

No words can describe my pain

Lost in an ocean of regret

For everything my mind forgets

So many words yet I can't explain

Just what's the matter with my brain!
