Words can't feel me

Words don't know how to express the way I feel,

Words can't express the way I see,

They fail to express the way I can't see clearly,

They fail to express the way my head spins

and turns around so bad that I feel I would pass out.

Words can't feel me as I speak them,

They can't call out my name,

They can't make me answer,

As much as the letters are written,

As much as I know the letters,

Words can't give me a definite definition.

Instead they only define themselves,

Their curves, their pronunciations,

Words can't flow through me,

Just as the same way,

Words don't hurt me,

They can't feel me,

They don't know how to pierce my skin

Like a two edged sword.

They don't know how to give meaning

To the thoughts they bear.

Words are just letters,

Ordinary letters I have known.

Letters taught to me,

Letters that count like 1 and 2 and 3.....
