My Words
I’m grateful for the words I have
The ones that heal wounds whether bleeding or dormant
For lines and phrases, that sing of love between two fools
The silly words that bring smiles to all our faces
I’m lucky to have them all
On the tip of my tongue
And the tip of my pen
They are the friends you find in the lowest of places
They understand the true meaning behind the words I share
I wouldn’t know what to do without my words
They are part of me
