Words

tiny little things...
    are these words....

            they create....

                               Love....

My darling I love you....

     words so sweet.......so tender....

         they cause the heart to grow soft....

My darling you are.........

       words.........

            they build.......

                       bridges from one soul to the next.......





Words......

    bring a smile to your lips

       and softness to your heart....

           hope for things to come........

                years of adventures to come........

Words....
   big....
    harsh....
     full of judgment....
            anger....
                  blame....
Words.....
   destroy....
       
What was once love....
            turns to immense pain
               leaving the one, that the words are thrown at....

twirling in a painful swirl....
    not knowing where to go.....

Words......
    hold them....
       on your tongue....

           consider.....

Words....

   these words .....

         that you are letting go....

      will they build?.....

            or will they tear apart....

               another's soul....

                        and in the end.....your own....

Words...........

   gentle.....

        soft....

           full of love....

               as soft as the foam........

                       that softly carresis your toes .......

                                as you stand on the shore......

  

These are the words that your darling wants to hear....

                  from you......
