Lost words

I am looking for my words
They slipped away
from the attic of my mind,
one by one.

They were beautiful.
They flowed.
They glistened with light and glory,
and, often times had a lilt.

Small words
Smart words
Salutary words
Rapier sharp, acerbic words

Alas, I decided to be quite for a while.
I stored my words away.
Evidently, they did not like,
the quite prison of my mind.

Seeking expression,
to shine once again,
in their verbose glory,
have made their way ,
out of my mind.
