I’ve Lost My Words. Can You Provide An Ending To This Poem?

Lost Words

I’ve lost my words;

I’ve lost my voice.

It’s really not

a conscious choice.

I’ve lost ideas;

I’ve lost critique.

I lose momentum

as we speak.

I’ve lost resolve

to pen and post

or correspond

with those I toast.

If I remain

distraught and mute

???

NOTE: I’m sure you can come up with a better closer than I did. After all, I’m wordless.

Update:

PS: The closing lines that keep knocking at my brain:

I'll simply close

this bumberchute.

    I've lost my sense

    Of day or night.

    I close the drapes

    And curse the light.

    Well, let's use your "wordless" idea and link it with the toast; how about:

    If I remain

    distraught and mute

    would you

    honor the wine

    and kick the wall

    out the host?

    I am SO late to the feast. Bad storms last night.

    If I remain

    distraught and mute,

    will words return?

    Will I dispute?

    If I remain

    distraught and mute

    I will only watch the stars,

    shift and shoot.

    edit - Oh and hey, Miss Adeline - that is just about the cutest kitten I have seen for quite some time. What a doll baby!

    "If I remain

    distraught and mute,

    just like a dead owl,

    I won't give a hoot.

    EDIT...Technically,the Owl says,"Whoot" but some owls shorten it to just "Hoot"...Either way,it's a play on words...It's kind of funny but really stupid too...

    I see a man in a dark blue suit,

    He looks down on his friend

    In deep disdain,

    Stanley,

    I have nothing to say, humm!

    Crappy isn't it?

    I'll still look hot

    in my swimsuit??

    Not to be cute;

    the tree bears fruit

    in it's time for some odd reason

    To force the lime

    before it's prime

    would be arborist treason
