"Lost For Words"
I lack the words to describe
unlike a scribe
there is no instruction as to what I should say
no specific formation of letters to lead the way...
it is very rare for me to be lost for words
if I were to look at myself now from yesterday
it would still seem absurd
it's just a situation I am unable to profess
a moment in time where all words seem useless
so I just, sit there
motionless
encompassed by stillness
with nothing to say
no profound message to convey
just a young man and his thoughts...
at least till the next day

The passing of knowledge and wisdom is keen to our future, so why not make acquiring this knowledge a bit more interesting. I share what comes to mind although it may not make sense all of the time, all in hopes you learn from me. Maybe you'll understand something I couldn't see. So please enjoy what I write and maybe, just maybe, you'll learn something new that could broaden even your world view.
