Times may come when words will fail ~~
Emotions will run high, and tears prevail.
written December 21, 2021
Define love
Words fail us
We dissolve
What is God
Love and light
Say no more
To ascend
Slow down thought
Gentle touch
A clumsy encounter
Where words fail
Keeping a distance
With those present
Abetting a slow
Riveting
Demise of dignity
Sad
Does not
Begin to
Express my thoughts
Words fail to explain the emotion felt
The abject disappointment when the last
Pistachio
Is but an
Empty
Shell
Words fail to dictate
the feeling of thirst for love
loved one's no response
When words fail Jan
Jan writes poems with sword
A tribute to Jan Allison
Inspired by her "WHEN SIMPLY NO OTHER WORD WILL DO"
Form:
Words fail
Dark sails
Blind chance
Deep trance
Blur sight
Sure plight
Nude knave
Faith saves
Dusk sets
Loss vets

The Indian guru's
mantra of the day,
tho' somewhat strange,
goes this way...
'When words fail
and at a loss,
contemplate aural hygiene
with transcendental floss.'
Words used to come so easily.
They used to wait to be jotted down,
Waiting to be read and shared with many.
Now words fail me.
My thoughts circle the drain, disappearing in an instant.
Words fail to explain her
Without doubt, sinister
Wearisome, she’s dreaded
Washed in blackest shadows
Wearing death like a cape
Wrathful as hell’s fury
Wishing for Halloween
Words fail
Cheer sails
End finds
Pain grinds
Too late
Grim fate
Last look
Close book
Fast hurl
Death curls
Rhymes break
Last stake

JOURNEY MIND MAP (9/25) — SLIPPING
Style spurs smile
Prime peak pile
When words fail
Still time sails
Do not weep
For lost sleep
Deem sure win
Deep within

Intense Words
By: Tom
2-6-2020
Intense words obliterate silence.
When we utter words so profound they require explaining,
perhaps they’re best left unsaid.
"where words fail, music speaks"
Hans Christian Anderson
I hide behind the combination of letters I put on paper
Unable to speak when I am close to you, near you in person
When I see you I lose all train of thought
I am silenced, words fail me, cease to exist
I am enamored, enchanted, without speech
if words fail to find me, and silence calms the sea,
harmony, somehow becomes lost in the wind,
not able to create a tender symphony- ever again
- there will always be, music in me
with its soft soothing melody
* simple moments *
It would be like a Cessna hitting a mountain;
Weltschmerz; rain falling on a tin roof.
So let me work my garden with burnt hands,
Thoughtless as a spade in cold loam.
Let all words fail as the day reduces.
We all love the holes in which we put our heads.
Words fail
To describe
This sensation,
That keeps me smiling,
A stupid little smile,
That makes everyone
About me
Think I’ve gone mad
What I smile for,
Giggle even,
That sensation,
Its my little secret,
Though it’s probably
Just an
Infatuation
Right?
once impulsive now
deserted forsaken
cast aside
jilted
stranded
rejected
dumped
ditched
unused
neglected
idle
unoccupied
uninhabited
I stand empty
words fail me
For the love of words
Deep in love with words,
I keep digging through the day,
Although words fail me,
Still can't help reverberate,
I am a structured poem !

For contest 'For the love of words' by Pendleton Arkwright
A melody to lift the heart
Let it soar in every part.
Wraps around you and
enfolds you in it's
complex web of sensations.
To lull you and ease your spirit.
Notes like cascading falls,
That surround you with
a life of their own.
A way to say things
When words fail.
When words fail me
When sleep escapes me
When troubles torment me
I cling to the Almighty
Though words fail me
Though she forsakes me
Though memories maim me
I cling to the Almighty
When words fail me
When grief besets me
When trials torment me
I cling to the Almighty
thoughts of you release my light
tonight light draws your beauty out
but a fool was birthed this night
thoughts of you release my light
words keep me from your present sight
why can’t I find a word to shout
thoughts of you release my light
tonight light draws your beauty out
How does one convey
a past not meant to last?
How does one explain
a numbed brain?
How can emotions
simply disappear?
Why do we turn against
those we hold dear?
When will our life
as we knew resume?
Back to normal
can we assume?
End the desire
oneself to impale?
Words fail.
Ask me again,
Let me tell you:
Mind speaks in vain,
Observe the cues;
Sales talk promise:
Touch on empty.
Expound vain gist,
Messy story;
Paint on ugly,
Tension soaks stress;
Yes sincerely,
Note sad progress;
Offer to dwell,
Words fail to sell.

Words fail here
Pain floods near
Surge knows fear
Pain grabs dear
Poise sans cheer
Pain hurls tears
Touch hurts deep
Pain blunts sleep
Joke now pokes
Pain stabs yoke
Too late now
Pain knows how
Dark firms spark
Pain strikes mark
