Words won't do

by Bradley Peter   Sep 18, 2005


I've been sitting here all day
with this pencil in my hand
trying to think of the right words to say
to help you understand

its hard to get the words across
but I'll do my best
because without you I'm lost
my heart is hard to express

i don't think words can explain
the feelings in my heart
and i can almost go insane
when we're too far apart

so I've been sitting on this floor
waiting for the perfect words to come
so i sit here some more
like when I'm with you, my body's numb

i wish for a moment my words could
explain what you've done to me
and if these words would
then finally you could see

no words can be said
my feelings can only be shown
so from now to the day we wed
I'm yours to own

*Kirsty, there are no words in the world that can express the way i feel about you, it hurts so much you not being able to know how much i love you. Even as i think about it now I've got a lump in my throat. i love you*

    I loved this. All too relatable to me right now. It's so frustrating when you have all these feelings that won't cooperate when trying to write.
