Grace Tan - Expressions

If words were enough to express what I feel
I would tell you so.

Happy,
Sad,
Lonely,
Tired-
But what if there more then these can ever say,
Its magnitude monstrous against a colossal wall of stone,
Unfathomable
Backed down;
Where the world’s best dictionary disappoints,
All you can do is see, and hear, and feel,
Because paper is somehow unable to take it in the writing
No words.

With only silence and memories
It will lead you through
Those moving pictures
No words.
