Acts.

We drown people with words,
thinking that everything is best conveyed through speech.
But in truth,
we just need a hug, or a kiss, or a tight embrace,
or another hand to hold ours.
And no word could equate 
the extent of what we wish to convey.

  1. For often, either they get in the way, or they're utterly insufficient.

    Language is a tricky context, in that it allows expression only up to the capacity of its vocabulary, and requisites a certain distortion or approximation to fit the sentiment within its structure, form, and lexicon.
