Words Like a Drum
I’ve got a friend who has
Words like a drum,
Words like a drum,
Words like a drum.
You’ll feel it pass through you
With a heart-beating thrum,
Raindrops’ pitter patter echo
All she has done.
I’ve got a friend who has
Words that come down,
Heavy like leaden-footed
Giants abound.
She’ll take your breath away
And you’ll feel it in your bones,
It shakes down the mountains
Wherever she goes.
I’ve got a friend whose words
Land like a punch.
Staccato but it always hurts
Far too much.
She fights every battle
Like it’ll make her enough
For words filled with love
While hers are cold to the touch.
