when the words don't come

when the words don't come
as my heart cries out
frozen pipes-no speech
wounded soul is numb

eyes are shut real tight
fists are clenched in fear
as I try to speak
but taste salty tears

will god hear my soul
when the words don't come
spirits--carry hope
giving you control

shame and disbelief
in my humaness
causes me to doubt
furthers scars and grief

heal and make amends
bring the joy once more
hear my heart cry out
hope in treasures stored

when the words don't come
thaw my bitterness
help me understand
you hear every one

every single cry
every burdened life
crying out for you
in their darkest night

silenced mouths are dead
only in the ground
you hear every word
even with no sound

when the words don't come
hear my soul cry out
help me know your ways
take away my doubt
