words

Words
Spoken softly in my ear
Words of love and not of fear
Words of courage, of strength of care
words that say,
“I’ll always be there”
Those words
Like the wind
With no beginning and no end
To brush by my ears
Let fall the tears
I feel them sweeping though the air
Bringing a chill to my spine and a tossel to my hair
You DARE!
Tell me that you care?
Those words that ring true
Everlasting and ever you
Why would you tell me of such things
And say it as often as the wind sings
Don’t you know that I want to believe in those
Words
Like the wind
To believe that your love has no beginning and no end
From here – my friend
Those words will chill me
Consume me
Defeat me
No matter how lovely they truly are
Blowing by me
And traveling so far
When I reach for them I can not grasp
Those words
