Then comes the moment when you know you’ve said it all
The moment you’ve been dreading
Logically you know this can’t be right
But you feel certain you’ll never have a thing to say again

No more stark dramatic facial effects
No more squinting and raising the eyebrows
No more accompanying groans and strangled whispers
No more gestures of phantom limbs out of dreams

No more phonemes sentences
Vast expansive orations
Declarations interrogations exclamations or imperatives
Just emptiness full to bursting
