My words are inadequate.
My mind is blank,
Covered over by a blanket,
One which hides logical thought.
I can't explain
Explanations are useless.
I can give you the essence
Of what I feel.
The tip of the iceberg,
But under the surface is hidden.
It's a secret.
Words weakly attempt
To tell this story.
Analyse the scene
With facts missing.
Because facts don't work
And fiction can't take the work.
Imagination has it's limits.
As long as you don't want sense,
Then ask me what I am.
For I can't form words,
Not to aid my argument,
Not to clear away the storms.
The crack in my mind.
The flaw in my sanity.

My favorite part:
"For I can't form words,
Not to aid my argument,
Not to clear away the storms.
The crack in my mind.
The flaw in my sanity."
