Every day

Talk, talk, talk

Good morning, how do you do

Words. Communication.

Good luck. Go away. I love you.

Words. Expressions. 

They say love. They say hope. 

They say anger, hopelessness, pain

An iced sword of double-edged meaning

Words. Languages, beauty and ugliness 

Dead. Ancient Latin. Archaic Greek.

A tragedy, when words that breathed life

Only can whisper of death

Words. Bitter and false. 

Can tear one down, shattered into pieces

No one whole. No one left. 

Power. Energy. Venom. 

Words. True and good 

Gentle healing, loving caress

The taste of victorious verity

Words. Words. Words. 

Every night

There is silence. 

As no words are left

I was inspired by the sheer beauty and sound of language. Everyone has something to say. But sometimes there's a time when no words are the best words.
