Her lips they part like oceans do
Her hair sways with the wind
You sit and deliberate in your thoughts
Will I see her again?

Her laugh echoes like thunder storms
Her smile strikes like lightning
You sit and ponder in your brain
Do I love her or is she frightening?

Her heart it beats like music thumps
Her words they flow like poems
You sit and contemplate all alone
Can your rhythm mimic her tones?

Her talk reminds you of telephones
Always ringing in your ear
You sit and scrutinize to yourself
Why isn’t this all clear?
                    T.W.

Endless conversations with people we don’t know
Trying to hold onto something when we never had control
The perfect words at perfect times your lips do seem to speak
A fear of showing emotion is what really makes me weak
For I can say all the words that may just make you stay
I can create a masterpiece of words that may push you away
Seeing is believing, yes a stranger told me this
Now I sit and ponder words that my heart just can’t dismiss
Words are just openings that lead to so much more
Emotions bring those words to life like never known before
Endless conversations with strangers leave thoughts lingering in me
And all the words I say to them I wish to you they’d be.

T.W.
