Being Speechless Without a Word
So often felt without a word
many handicaps come in at one time
nerves, stress, tight throat, breathless
these things gripped causing false rhyme
Panic signs make one lose control
being under its grip I fall to lose
no word you feel can be said
thinks I'd be better on a cruise
Strive through life to find calmness
knowing this is the elusive jewel
one wonders can it ever be found?
not like one's spirit needing renewal
There comes a time to consider
that there's no more I can do
just got to leave it in God's hand
His sovereign purpose will come true
Being speechless without a word
so often this was my plight
but be thankful it's not all the time
in my dark tunnel, there's some light
(Thinking about a time I was rendered speechless which in fact has happened a few times in my life, so this is my experience of these times.)
