Words

Words once birthed

From the labored thoughts

To express the once unspoken

Adopted by so many

To give a meaning of their own

Words see so many facets

Of our inner feelings

Into the realm of eternity

Before silence takes over

We shall rely on our words

Weighing every word carefully

They become our extension

We shall fall silent one day

But the words shall remain after us

Trying to give a glimpse

Of the life that we had once lived ©
