Language

I try to mumble
but my broken tongue and paralysed lips
fail.
Can every emotion find its way
into the world of words?
A world with confused grammar,
punctuated sentences
and organised paragraphs—
from one chaotic world into another.
Tangled up in the “rules”,
I try but the wild insane overflow
of feelings speaks in tongues
alien to you
and powerless against the wall
you build around your senses.
I wish you could fly you blind
strands with stray dreams
and build a nest inside
the heart of the one
who can’t understand
the language of love.
