There are no words
In space,
Or that’s where they are kept?
Because words
We can’t erase
Like days
We only wept

There is no love
In heart,
Or that’s where it’s all found?
Because words
May tear apart
From space
The lack of sound

There is no faith
In trust,
Or that’s where it is known?
Because words
May be a must
But space
Is overgrown

There is no hope
In us,
There seemed to be so much?
But these words
Might help discuss
Like space
An icy touch

well penned but I hope you are wrong and  hope is what I have, hope in my faith, or is it faith that gives me hope...chicken or egg, hope/faith

Walt~
What a ponderous piece ....

'words
We can’t erase
Like days
We only wept'


This struck me so deeply ....
Thank you ... or the 'narrator'.
