Words
gentlegirl
copywrite


Words I do not have them
only heart knows what I say
before they're overflowing
now my thoughts delay

Words all running wild
within my mind they scamper
trying to set them free
heart puts forth it's own damper

Words once said are done
no time can ever erase
forgiveness only choice
pain shown on the face

Words of "I'm sorry" lose meaning
when too often they are used
like slap to face for some
The heart is now abused

Words can mean so much
or nothing much at all
sound controls the meaning
submitter makes the call

Words I want to say now
but cannot find the way
Perhaps the well is dry
maybe silence is all I say

Words I search for still
of how to break this feel
like chains used in a prison
clamped on my heart like steel

Words you left unsaid to me
you quickly walked away
perhaps to someone waiting
for this their "special" day

Words we all use carelessly
So now I choose with care
whenever heart will let me
both our hearts must hear

Words to ease the burden
blame we both must share
trust has cost us all
thoughts do wander there

Words my heart would say
Reverse the time to then
When love was overwhelming
hearts exchanged back when...

Words for hurt to use
or calm a spirit now
our souls were so entwined
undo please tell me how

Words if used for pain
I have no strength to say
for I am very gently soul
remaining still today

Words I use to run away
when hurt became too much
you never understood this
but undid it with your touch

Words became as noting
"sorry" meaningless too
you never taking time
to make me first with you

Words now of goodbye
i cannot find my breath
to utter that one word
the word i hate as death

Words you have none now
you run away this time
as if you were a robber
you committed one last crime

Words not said by you
leaves me with no heart
I gave it to you long ago
you took from me that part

Words now I can't say
no longer can you hear
nor feel my anguished cry
"forever I'll be near"

Words we promised each
no option to replace
promised "forever as one"
no allowance to erase

Words we carry with us
until our dying breath
to you a heavy burden
to me love is my death
