Couldn’t speak

Had much to say

But not a word could be uttered

Paralyzed with sadness

The veins pulsating

Paralyzed with numbness

The mind reeling

At a loss as to how to break through

A way could be forged most assuredly

But was stuck in silence

In a car going two hundred

No brakes to break the veil

Even the radio is muted

No sing song to cry to

Must say a word

Must just scream

The moon demands it
