Hem-Jawed

adj.
feeling trapped inside your own language, struggling to shake away the baggage weighing down certain words, unable to break out of its age-old structures and melodies, frustrated that the scattering of verbal pigments on its palette could never quite capture the colors in your head.

From hem, an attempt to clear the throat + jaw, coarse babble.
