There are 7 continents and 195 countries.

7.117 languages and 400 alphabets.

And that's just if we get technical

Because these are not the only means we use to express ourselves.

We are not limited to letters, words, and languages.

We can use our bodies, art, music

And even eye contact

Because even the biggest messages can be communicated with silence.

And yet I always find myself not speaking about the important things

The things that haunt you like the monster under your bed every time it gets dark.

There's almost never a way to share them with others,

Even with your closest pals.

Many languages come close to expressing them,

But none quite get there

And after all that I'm left wandering

Will I ever find a language to speak of the things that haunt me most?

Or will I forever search for that unknown feeling of completement?
