Words on Words – a Poem

Words are wings for ideas to take flight

Words are rays that bring feelings to light

Words are bridges that span heart to heart

Words are arrows that can tear us apart

Words are legacies we leave when we pass

Words are clothes for our naked thoughts

Words are a balm that can heal our sorrows

Words are paths to yesterdays and tomorrows

Words are mirrors of our minds and thoughts

Words are windows that look into our hearts

Words are memories of loves lost and past

Words are dreams of journeys yet to pass

Words can imprison us and set us free

Words were, words are, words ever will be
