Words |
| I would rather suffer in sweet silent solitude |
| Deathly defiant from drowning out |
| Filthy sounds stumbling ugly and crude |
| Between the lips of your beautiful mouth |
| Deep down within me words move in phases |
| Frozen and still until they decide |
| To melt and drip over the pages |
| Until that moment they live inside |
| My words enjoy the feel of the paper |
| Better than me, lay with your consonants |
| Once they get going, they never waver |
| And they slip in between your ifs, ands, and buts |
| When my words are hiding between the lines |
| Then I’m afraid they won’t hear me call |
| What if they fail me without a sign? |
| What if they hardly surface at all? |
| Screaming and throwing your weight around |
| My words choose knowledge over politics |
| You can’t kill my words, they know no bounds |
| My words are strong and they don’t make me sick |
| They still remain my only companion |
| Boiling truth to the very end |
| They’ll never ever completely abandon |
| Ever give up the paper and the pen |
