No Words Exist
What shall I write
nothing comes to mind
I wish I had a verse
or maybe a rhyme
The vacant alley
betrays my fears
The sputtering lamp
reveals my tears
Yet here I sit
with no words at all
that empty feeling
before the fall
What shall I write
my mind in a daze
only one memory
that of his face
But no words exist
not for this pain
it's something that words
could never explain
Here at my window
I wait for a sign
I wait for an angel
to tell me he's fine
