Lost for Words

Words scattering about in disarray

No form nor sensical points

Unconnected they spill out and lay

In confused betray

Thoughts rattling about in discordant rounds

Raysar trayingbe; a gibbering expression

Broken stilted murmuring sounds

In sense of proffered crowns

Sentiments and times of glory sit in wonder

Or pace about in pursuit of the empty days

Place and time have been torn asunder

And dread, fear and anxiety brood in plunder

The sitting rooms host emptiness

And invite silence to swallow random words

Catapulted into the air of madness

As satisfaction and want are both meaningless

Lost words and faltering meanings

Thoughts escape into jigsaw fractures

As the eyes glow then fade in flickering feelings;

Like shadows moving across the wall’s photograph gleanings.

Dawn’s light wakes the day

Without a name as they are all the same

Kindness and care are a visit of gentle stay

So to hold a hand and kiss the fears away.
