words are usually my medium of choice
I’m told I’m skilled at using words to create art
but often, words fail me
when emotion runs deep
words feel so shallow
when reality is rich
words seem so dry
I write to try to ascribe meaning to emotions
to understand experiences
but often, words fail me
the prose falls flat
when describing fascinating feelings
the poetry seems stale
when attempting to show sentiment
still, words continue to flow out
because without an outlet, they stagnate inside
yet often, words fail me
