Without Words Three words in which to say What I feel for you But do you think I can say them? No, I can’t it’s true I can make the strong man Weep tears of joy or sorrow My words can tell a story of A yesterday or tomorrow My dictionary and thesaurus Hold the words within their covers Those words I’ve read countless times Written by so many others Do you think I can write them Here upon this page in black Or will they stay upon my lips Unsaid, so I can’t take them back If you knew how much I need To tell you how I feel If only I had those three words My love I could reveal.

hard sometimes to say them, aye? but if you keep the words to yourself, the people you love may never know... ![]() "A Poet's life is on written page; a scenario to take the stage--watch..." dgvarner [This message has been edited by dgvarner (edited 05-31-2000).] |

Never know what kind of place those key words will open and unlock when they are spoken to unlock the door to the secret of our own heart. |

Those words can sometimes be the hardest of all to say. Excellent poem, Sharon. Denise |

Somethings may be hard to say, but better to share how you feel than keep it inside! Hmmn, 3 words...I forgive you? I love you? I hate you? You bore me? You stress me!? LOL I could go on and on here but I won't ![]() I love it! |

Awesome Sharon! I think you've said it, as the title implies, "Without words". Excellent! Jester |

Sometimes, actions speak louder than words...maybe they already know how you feel. This is quite a touching piece. You have a way with words. |

Thank you all for your kind words. I wondered what would happen if a poet had all the words at her disposal but still couldn't put them to good use..after all, words are our 'business'...hmmm thanks again. ![]() |

Gather up your courage and SAY THEM!!!! For it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved.....have to risk to get the just rewards, my friend. Courage and strength be with you!! ![]() LW Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |

Wierd how it seems hardest to say those three little words when you know for a fact that is how you feel ... Good job! |

Three words that spell out how one feels. Yet sometimes the hardest to say. Beautiful |

Poet deVine, "Without Words". Your poem so true and a good reminder. Hard words (for me) to say sometimes, especially to people I love the most and need to say, although already knowing! Thank you for this one. marcy |

Sometimes I find it more difficult to keep the words in. They fall out of my mouth at the most inopportune moments. Beautiful words, whether said or not.. Sandra |

there are certain things that words will never be able to fully express especially love. You can write the greatest love poem ever but only you will know what that love feels like, if you can feel the love in your heart then you do not need words to express it. That said thank you for expressing your poem and sharing it with the forum, a wonderful piece.
