I wrote this one day when trying to write a poem.I often have trouble coming up with the words I'm looking for, so this poem came about.It's simple, but I kinda liked it.
Loss of Words

A way with words I do not have
It doesn't seem to come as naturally to me as it does to some


So many words trickling from my mind like rain, yet never spilling from these lips
How do I express how I feel?


So many feelings flowing like wind from my heart, yet never making it to your ears.
How do I express how I feel?


So many thoughts twisting through me,
yet never unwinding unto paper.
How do I express how I feel?


A way with words I do not have
It doesn't seem to come as naturally to me as it does to some.


How do I express how I feel?

Noelle  - I think you just did.  Nicely done.  Keep writing, and it will become easier and easier, or just start plagiarizing other writers poems.lol  Seriously, nice writing.

Very good expression in these words. Your poem is the expression of how you feel.

Noelle, you did a wonderful job of expressing yourself in this piece. I love it and don't think you have to worry about finding the right words. Cheryl

Seems like you did just fine to me.

You're never wrong about how you express your feelings.  They are after all, your feelings and you have the final say, always.

Noelle - the way to express how you feel is to just keep writing as you have this one. It's full of you, and the words just flow well.
