No Words to Sing



You’ve read the songs I carefully penned,

And felt the heart from which they sprung.

But as farewell comes, I’m lost, dismayed,

No words come up my tongue.


There’s no reason I should write anymore,

No reason to laugh nor smile.

It’s as if life grew dark and thick,

A silent pause for a while.


The end, it came like a lark bird’s creak;

And as I picked up my bags and keys,

I looked back once at those memories,

And said, “Goodbye to times like these.”


If every emotion had a word,

And every word an emotion stirred,

No songs would bloom, no hearts would sing,

Just dictionaries, defining everything.
