Words-FlyingWORDS

Winds which carry

My feelings

To my beloved ones

They made me what I am

And they helped me

In becoming

What I was destined to be.

 

When I wanted to tell someone

I was feeling so much

About her

They carried my messages

I love you to her

And when rejected

They whispered to me

On with the march

 

There are resounding vacuums

When a train passes

Over a bridge

Words become a roar

Without saying anything

They turn silences

Which cry loud.  

 

How I love and how I wish

To bring back

The moments when words

Described me as a hero

And also when moments of loss

Were turned

Into tears and flowed away

 

When I fell in love with life

When I married

When I suffered and joyed

And now when I depart

Thanks O words!

For imparting a face

To this tempting cyclic race.
