My words have stalled –

I’ve waited for them to tumble and fall

But they’re seemingly stuck,

And unable to flow,

So they cease to show,

The darkness of

The depths from where they would’ve sprung.

And in the absence of words,

I can only hope for an else

Which alas

Remains elusive –

Just like peace,

That has gone missing.
