THESE WORDS
These words are not exclusively mine.
I just put them together all in a
straight line.
These words don’t have to be put into a
song.
The music in your head can follow along.
These words may be about something that
transcends all time.
These words may or may not have to
rhyme.
These words may be something very personal
to me.
They could mean something completely
different when left for others to see.
These words can make you laugh or make
you cry.
They can make you think and ask
yourself why.
These words could be about an old fool
whose eyes have seen it all.
They could be about the little guy that
holds his ground and stands tall.
These words can be about things that I
want and things I hold dear.
They could be about an angel that
whispers in my ear.
These words can be about the times we
have to make choices.
They could be about the times in our
heads that we hear little voices.
These words can be about lovers that
only see each other online.
They could be about a lover you can
only see in your mind.
These words can be about a bull and a
cowboy on an eight second ride.
They could be about a moon beam that
takes you to the other side.
These words can be about deep dark
secrets that can never be told.
They can be about how touching a soul
can be daring and bold.
These words may be about dreams and
places where love is true.
They can be about a mystery call Déjà
vu.
These words can be about things I
remember from a time long past.
They could be about loves that have
come and gone that just couldn’t last.
These words can be about a storm of
death call a hurricane.
They could be about all the little
things that drive me insane.
These words can be about the truth and
how I’ve been searching for a long while.
They may be about how I’ve found what
I’m looking for when I see you smile.
These words may mean that in a poem
I’ve found what is true.
All I know is, all these words that
I’ve put in a straight line are all for you.
