Without Words

Lost, I can't find me
Lost in the weeds
Lost without words
There on the ocean's floor
Still with only the under 
Current to move me sullen
And weak as a humming  bird
Without its song
With many cares  stuffed 
Deep into every pocket I'm
Crying  lame and barely a brain
This is the worse it's ever been
Words escape me.
Pen in hand and there
The ink has frozen.
What  worse can happen?
