Can'T

Words-
What else can you write on a
Blank canvas?
Feelings,
Masked emotions,
Flavorless words coming from
Flavor-FULL lips that just can't!
Can't find the right words
Can't speak the native tongue, even though your parents taught it to you at the age of nine
Can't talk to God because you're afraid he'll only listen.
You think he gives no feedback
BECAUSE he only
Listens.
