Do you focus on the letters
Or the words they form—
The letters of the law
Or it’s intent?
It’s the thoughts behind the words
The lingering questions behind the melody
That truly tell the story.
But we all focus on the words
Instead of their thoughts
And the melody
Rather than what lingers.
The sweetness,
Not the aftertaste.
Is that why we miss
What means the most?
