There Are Lots Of Words Poem by Patti Masterman

There Are Lots Of Words



There are lots of words; there are lots of days
But the word she yearns, he will not say
To pay their dues the crowds pass by
But behind his mouth live only lies
She veil her eyes, she close her mind
So that desire won't make her blind
For free will has, and free will can
Do things to the unfast heart of man.

If she be not of worth to him
She can't face the night again
Her courage fails her in the void
To think he may have only toyed
Until his loved had turned to scorn
And now she thinks her heart be torn
She has no pride, she has no guile
Her heart has always been a child.

She'd rather die than live without
A sign of what life was about
No thing is dear to her today
She'd like to give her soul away
And then live naked, wild and free
Where no pain is bound to be
She hopes he'll think of her some time
And know for love, she stayed behind.
