When words fail me, I peer into my bottomless oblivion And think of expressing The honest, harsh, yet humorous side of me. When words fail me, I forage through my past And think of revealing The unusual, ugly, yet unblemished side of me. When words fail me, I discard the frightened side And think of presenting The pretty, pale, yet perfect side of me. But when words fail me, My thoughts fail too, And I can only reveal The silent, shy, yet sanguine side of me.

Wordless
When words fail me, I peer into my bottomless oblivion And think of expressing The honest, harsh, yet humorous side of me. When words fail me, I forage through my past And think of revealing The unusual, ugly, yet unblemished side of me. When words fail me, I discard the frightened side And think of presenting The pretty, pale, yet perfect side of me. But when words fail me, My thoughts fail too, And I can only reveal The silent, shy, yet sanguine side of me.
