Words Fail Me

Intellect in disarray, Eloquence falls short, again. You, perfect picture, in my mind’s eye, Words often fail when they aim to describe. I look in every lexicon, Delving into dictionaries, Empty out encyclopaedias, Thumbing through the thesauri... I conclude no words compare to you, Descriptions weak and rarely true. No word does justice, phrases fail To truly tell what you entail.
