Another one about words...

My true self, I suppose...

Lying dormant in the dark

hidden behind the easy,

hollow words

words that lack

words that slack

words that fall onto ears but fail to even spark

 

what truly sparks the heart

are words that live

words that breathe

words that float on the wind through mountains

words that are whispered by leaves in the trees

 

Exotic, melodic

they fall from the tongue with excitement

bringing merriment

or pulling on your heart strings

words that make you think

words that dive down to the depths of what you're feeling

and rescues you from the pain you've been keeping

Setting you free
