Words ... Sometimes

They fall,
sometimes
slow,
sometimes
twisting,
even go
unheard,
forgotten,
never
thought
about,
sometimes
lingering,
cutting,
into flesh
ripping
into bone,
sometimes
covered,
with warm
salty tears,
sometimes
hidden,
behind
fear and
pain,
sometimes
felt,
loved,
whispered
into souls,
sometimes
believable,
truthful,
with meaning.
