Trouble in Expression

My infatuations are simple
Straightforward

But something about this one makes me tongue tied
I can't seem to express my emotions
Like I used to

My feelings
My emotions
Would flow out onto the page
Filling it with beauty
Love
Pain

But somehow
I can't
My mind is unable to process
Comprehend
What is and is not
What will and will not be

What my heart is saying
Is indecipherable
This
This is my stumbling point
All the thoughts, emotions
Jumbled up in my brain
Unable to make connections of expression
Even though expression
Is the one thing I do right

I don't know how
But what's worse is
I don't know why
I can't breathe
My words are stuck inside
Choking me
Suffocating

Words
Words will be my downfall
