Words And Words

*Words and Words*

O, dear!
You tease me,
You hurt me,
You tear me apart;
Your words- they go like a surgeon's knife to my heart,
They rip apart
My body & soul.

Your words
which mean a lot to me, sometimes,
Kill me,
Just kill me.
Though,
We have a bond
A knot that never shakes, a strange bond
A sacred relationship
Which only two souls can feel, just you & me;
You have been a dream for me
You have been a dream to me.

I can't go beyond you
I can't think beyond you;
My thoughts never go ahead of you
You, you & just you:

In a moment, in a moment of that eerie togetherness, you promised me the bond,
That bond of souls
With your precious words;

Your words are a pleasure to me, they're
A treasure to me,
They are a whole world to me,
Please, please
Choose your words carefully:
These are the only gifts
You give me these days,
These are the only wounds
You give me these days,
These are the only surprises you give me these days,
The words, your words
Which mean a lot
Which give a lot
Which snatch a lot.

The words which echo our relationship
Which echo that connect
Which is always there,
It is there for good.

Your silence! Aye, your deafening silence!
When you don't speak a word,
For the world it's silence,
For me, it's a cry,
It's a whimper
A whole lyric,
It's a whole epic
It's a whole world.

Your silence gives me thoughts,
Thoughts that I produce in my words,
In my writings, in my verse.
For, only I can listen to your silence.
Only I can read your unsaid words.

You're the inspiration, you are the force,
You're the motivation
Behind all my creative thoughts,
Your word-less thoughts provide me word-ful thoughts
To write, to share, to express
O, Life! keep on inspiring me,
Keep on motivating me,
Keep on giving me ideas,
Just through your smiles,
Just through your bytes,
Just through your beautiful eyes.
Just through your beautiful voice,

Be, as you are, forever,
Forever young & fresh,
Mine & mine always.
