Words that Speak
03 June 2006

More than words can say
yet all I have is words to give
What was like, where did love live

Could this be a place
hope and sorry meet
Therefore as to words
this does greet

Nothing more and nothing less
where this voice was yet to speak
Because within your eyes
that soul remained
but in spirit to peak

Looking at you, but knowing
this comes at but a price
The kind of cake, taken and eaten
a nibble by nibble, succulent in every slice

For what was poetry, words and more
What was like, where did love live
More than words can say
yet all I had was words to give


“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God
is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Romans 6:23 KJV
