The Perfect Word

By: Lauren Nicole

I know what I want to say
The words are on my heart's way
But they are hidden
I know they are there
I know they are everywhere
Because I can feel them

But a shadow covers every letter
When I want to send them on a letter
I realize that they aren't better
So I start over, and again I will start over
And nothing seem right or perfect
I know the perfect words are there
I just haven't found them yet

I am haunted by feelings of emptiness
And it's as though the feeling makes a hole in my soul
I can feel it, with every lonely kiss
I can touch it, like a shadow touches the wall
Constalnty reminding me of how I once felt

It seem like every time one heals
Another one begins to grow
I am so tired of feeling it
Because it is the feeling of loneliness
And it will never go
