Nothing can find the right words

I stare at the empty screen, fingers waiting to strike the keys,
but nothing comes to heart or mind, nothing does my soul share tonight
the darkness that I have felt, numbs it all.

I try to make myself think, I can't.
I try to make myself see, I can't
I try to make myself speak, but nothing will come out.

I am too numb to tell.

the words I know that I hold inside
stay there till the time is right.

hiding everything I can,
so that I wont get hurt again.

I stare at the empty screen, fingers waiting to strike the keys
and yet nothing will come flowing out.
though I feel a sad song in my heart.

Please tell me what you think

    Very expressive -- Well Written

    Control what we can for the good. The rest is not our fault (unless it is the result of a past wrong decision we knowingly made).

    Feeling numb is a feeling that I too have felt and still feel at times, its such a horrid feeling and I would not wish it on anyone, I guess it is our way of protecting ourselves from anymore hurt. There are many times that so many words within just won't find the paper in front of me and I struggle to express myself, as Karen said possibly drawing or painting, cooking anything that you could put your mind into. I am here if you ever need to talk believe I have been where you are at many times. Hugs Theresa

    I know the feeling of being frozen and numb ~ not being able to proceed or even express oneself. In time, you will heal and the words will come. Have your tried another medium? Drawing or painting. Even music. These are healing tools and well. Message me anytime dear. You know that I am here for you. Karen

    Wow this is very much how I feel. Hard to write when everything seems so bleak. Very well expressed.
