Awkward Wordings

Awkward Wordings give birth eventually. The sense and feeling is here, again of feeling awkwardness. The flow of words, its rhythm and rhyme hold a structure that is stiff even the hand hesitates to write. There is a void of expression a gap and space of emotion of what came so readily before. In every pen stroke there is holding back for what just cannot find expression. It hurts to struggle with the words. pangs the heart to be inexpressible. It stifles the thought process revealing nothing but blankness but most of all It forces the spirit to lag and flounder in the shadows at not knowing or being capable of having something worthwhile to say.
