Sometimes there are no words

Sometimes there are no words to be said
as its all been said before
Sometimes there are no words to hear
for the tears silently fall

Would you listen, if there were words to be said
or would it just be wasted air
would you really hear what my feelings are
or would they fall on deaf ears

Sometimes there are no words to be said
for fear of hurting a loved one
Sometimes there are no words to hear
for maybe the feelings told
will be thought of as they are not real

Would the words fall on deaf ears
would the tears continue to fall
with no one to gently wipe them away
would i feel as though im being turned away
with no one to embrace.

or

Would the words that are said be heard
would the tears be gently wiped away
Would your arms wrap around me
and pull me close

Listening to every heart

Ah, I do know this feeling...and sometimes, sometimes it is a blessed feeling, and sometimes, it is a very empty, hollow ache...

Well done.

I wrote one by the same title...years ago...if I may share...


Sometimes there are no words
when the air is thin and the eyes are dry
when the heart can't sing the song along
no melody in emptiness gone by

Sometimes there are no words
when the darkness holds pain so great
that silence is unbearable
you cannot run anymore from fate

Sometimes there are no words
no feelings or emotions to play
when you think "there's got to be something
this can't be all I am today"

Sometimes there are no words
when you purposely rip out the pages
clearing the pallet of the mind
so the heart can go through stages
where the pain is accepted
and the numb is let go
and living becomes easier
then you come to know
that sometimes there are no words
when the air is thin and the eyes are dry
sit back, breathe, and conclude
that you don't need a reason why.

Sometimes there are no words.

very beautiful..........sometimes there really are no words and it hurts like hell.But i'm curious to know which pain is worse.....saying the words or hearing the words that so desperately need to be said.....or silence.

kaleanna,

There are times when no words need be said, or so we seem to wish.
Yes, so much is about communication.
And isn't that why we are here?

I enjoyed your reply post, too.
