Stumped
Can't seem to think straight
Triumphed
"The Block's" keeping me up late
Words tangled up
Mouth and brain can't seem to function
Because when the words come out
It all looks like one swift motion
Choppy
Words diced up real short
Copy
Can't make a sentence work
How to get the words out
That I mean to say
Even though I think them
Almost every single day
Heart
The words pound loudly in my chest
Start
Although I know you know me best
Listen to the music
Playing in my soul
Electrifying clarity
As I slowly lose control
The words that try to form
Around my tongue And through my lips
Zap and twirl and dance
Upon my happy kiss
