I know what I want to say

But how do I say it?
That is
The thoughts and feelings
When in my head are perfectly clear,
But when I try and pass them on…
I have words.
Lots of words.
Flying round my head.
How do I catch them?
Put them in order?
They try desperately
To wriggle free
“Don’t pick me”
“I won’t make sense”
“They’ll get completely
The wrong idea”
At last
I win the fight,
Place them on my tongue
And
The moments gone.
I swallow my words
The conversation moved on
Without me.
