I Cannot Write a Song

There are so many, many things

I wish that I could say…

Compel you to believe them-

But, sadly, there’s no way.

No matter how I struggle,

The words just come out wrong-

As I sit in deep frustration…

I simply cannot write a song.

I do not have the words or means

To say what’s in my heart.

Though people often tell me-

The things I write are art.

So, I sit here quite befuddled-

As the feelings are so strong-

Yet I cannot seem to voice them-

Because I cannot write a song.
