Ethereal relationship, more real than flesh and bone-
And far preferred , by me at least- to dwelling all alone.
Words have power, yes, they have, to satisfy the mind,
And give far more satisfaction, than most will ever find.

Words can bring a smile to life, or bring a joyful tear-
And words can comfort one at night and calm their every fear.
Words can cause the heart to beat much faster, don’t you know?
If words of romance kill me, that is how I want to go.

So very, very lovely, John . . . I love it very much and I concur with every word, except that I don’t want there to be a sliver of a possibility that our words of romance could kill you, but I do understand completely what you mean and thank you, darling.
