When Words Couldn’t Write It

There comes a time

When words can’t write it.

You thought it and felt it,

But words couldn’t write it.

 

There comes a time when

The language of the heart,

Speaks a different language

Then the human tongue.

 

There comes a time when,

The heart cries,

But the eyes can’t produce tears.

Or there is joy,

That can’t be expressed with a smile.

 

There is an expression

Of the heart and soul

That sings a different song,

Dances a different dance,

Writes a different language,

That only the heart can understand.

 

There comes a time,

When the writer’s pen is silenced,

When words cease to flow,

When the writer could not write it.

 

There comes a time,

When the writer couldn’t write

Because the heart spoke

A different tongue,

And the writer couldn’t translate.

 

So, dear reader, when you look

 

Upon a blank page,

 

Understand that the heart was speaking,

 

But the writer couldn't write it.
