Wasted breath
Hollow words
Words with no meaning,
Except for you
... For you they mean  everything
Everything... and nothing at all
Nothing, because no one
will give them to you
Everything, because they are
the words you live to hear
They are the words you strive to achieve.
They are your goal.
To have someone hear them and understand
That one person will understand and say them back
and then finally you will finally understand their meaning.
Once you understand
then it will all make sense.
Why you spent so long waiting to hear them
and why they mean so much even though
you don't completely understand why you need them so much.
      "I want you, I need you, please just be mine!"
