Do I make sense when
I open my mouth
and tell you things
a bit too loud?
Things that are
supposed to be ordinary
but in a way I talk about it
sounds so silly.
I mumble on my words
but in my brain that’s
not how it works.
Constructed phrases
come out as random verses—
It’s all a mess.
It’s a bit uncoordinated—
my mind and my lips
forgive me when there
are times my words slip.
It’s best to read
it on a paper
you’ll probably
understand me better.
I didn’t even need to open your post to like it. I am the same way. Then I opened it and officially thought, yep, that’s me…

Well, everyone listens to the loudest, not the quietest. Even tho they may have an awesome story to tell. 🙂

The struggle is definitely real, not only in expressing myself clearly, but also about this topic in itself. Sometimes I feel that written words can’t convey the same emotion or urgency or any of the characteristics that speaking can. But then I remember how much of an awkward speaker I am, and go back to thinking writing is better. 😅

It’s like writing is much more expressive than actually saying it.

I think lot of people have better guilty of writing instead of speaking. They can express their feeling to write. I believe a lot of can be solved if write before we speak.
