Spoken Words

I try to convey my thoughts, say something profound. But, nothing comes to me, I can't utter a sound. Words can be spoken easily, without any effort at all. But for me, it was never easy, as I seem to recall. Wanting to say the right thing, at just the right time. Has always eluded me, unable to make the ability mine. Writing my thoughts has always been for me, the best way, To let others know how I feel, without having to say. I listen to others speaking about a current event, I decide to join in, or at least it is my intent. I spoke, or did I, because it appears I was not heard, But alas, I didn't say anything, not a single word.
