When Words Stop...

It is the times..

when there are too many thoughts

and the words

are jumbled on an exit ramp

waiting to get out

times...when words

just don;t work...

times when I need someone

who knows me well

to be there

and keep me safe

from myself

and my self destructive paterens

until I can move past it

and the words

start to trickle

and then flow

You may never know

how much I needed you

right then...

We may never know

what is it you saved me from...

but you did...

and I am thankful

and I can say so

now that words

again flow.
