semantics

words
they mean nothing
and yet they mean everything
i want them to make sense
but it all sounds foreign to me
what is inside my head
doesn't match what my hand writes
and everything is lost
paragraphs
and syllables
grammar and punctuation
similies and metaphors
verbs and nouns
i understand them all
but i can't write a thing
i'd like to let you know
everything inside my head
but i can't find the words
