I Can't Say Enough Poem by Kyle Schlicher

people
want to talk to me.

i don't have much to say.

i've always been like this,
quiet,
into myself;

however,
i do think a lot.

too much, so i've been told.

people say,
slick,
you think too much.
quit thinking
so much.

ok, i'll say to them,
i'm not thinking for a while.

they'll say, good,
now let's talk.

ok, i'll say.

so then,
we'll sit there for a while.

and then,
i'll begin thinking again.

they'll say,
you don't have much to say,
do you?

i'm sorry,
what did you say?

i was busy thinking.
