What makes up a thought? The script in italics? The emotional voiceover? How do you define a thought? "the action or process of thinking" That is it's literal allocated form, a string of letters, used to show a multitude of meaning. Break           It              Down Thought Thinking Sentences Words Letters Alphabet ( the basic elements in a system that combine to form complex entities) Symbol Emotion Rational Moral Hormonal Genetically engrained How do you describe thought? I cannot leave things unsaid And yet, there is no way to say them, without telling a half truth, an attempt, A Lie. The things I've left unsaid                             For fear of seeing them wrong Litter my memory Incomplete songs Poems and hidden fears not far behind Once un-winded, they are still as encrypted as before Even to me half formed So, instead of half truths, I shall tell half words I love you Perhaps Not always One day One day perhaps I will try to tell But, before then, I'll be human and tell Half Words Leaving my trust in things Louder than sound.
