Words of passion; words of lust
Words whose meanings shine true
Even when silenced; shushed

They come easily to some—though
Others think they're hidden from view
Words that speak of events soon to come

Words with rhythm; Some that are aloof
Words I cannot keep inside—a slew
Of my love or pain; proof—

They flow like blood from open wound;
Like blessings of a preacher to the pew;
And like pure, unadulterated sound
