Words Poem by C J Browning

Words
Words…meaningless words
They swirl around me….
They taunt…
They plead…
They soothe…
They tell me things
I do NOT want to know
I do not Care to know
I wish they would just go away…
Get out of my head….
The written word…
The spoken word…
The whispered words
So cloyingly sweet
Deceptive in their
Attempt to soothe
My battered soul.
They never help.
They cannot help!
I WILL NOT LISTEN!
