Just a few little words
Was all that it took
Suddenly everything was broken
An  uncaught thought
Running loose with no excuse
For ever being spoken

It'll never be the same
No need to even blame
Anyone for the damage
It wouldn't mean a thing
No words will ever ring
With truth
Or ever even manage

To break the awful silence
To take away the pain
To stop the sad decay
To turn loss into gain
To open up closed doors
To put back the love
To right the wrong once done
To not take push to shove

But it's done... done... done
From start to finish
I heard the starting gun... gun... gun
As my racing heart
Let love diminish

Now the cold wind blows
Across my empty dreams
And the warmth of my love
Is washed away downstream
Where it will sink to the bottom
In rivers of icy cold... cold thoughts
And find peace among the rubble
Giving up its final bubble
As it slowly rots
Washing out to sea
As if it never even existed
The inevitable fate
Of any uncaught thought
That should have been... could have been... resisted

Uncaught thoughts that should have been
Left out... resisted... never even listed
Among any spoken word
But because you didn't choose....
.... to pause
Didn't choose to think or realize
The brink that you were standing at
The awesome distance that suddenly existed
Complete with the echo of a connection broken
A word spoken
That should have been - could have been
Really should have been ... resisted
A word that really should have been
That could have been... resisted
A word... that sadly...
.....has now been
Has now been listed!
