Only Words

Faded moments, misplaced bliss,
fate has destined us to this.

Empty arms hide tear-filled eyes,
over-analyzing lies.

Shadows fall on quiet hips,
broken dreams part thirsting lips.

Loneliness has creased the brow -
Only words between us now.

nice poem, Many people live in loneliness while the shadows of time overtake them before they find the real dream. But they fail to realize that the really important thing is actually to know that God loves us and His son Jesus the Christ died for our sins so we would not have to pay the price. Check out the book of John in the Bible to find out how to be changed from the inside out.

I Like this...especially the 2nd lines...


"fate has destined us to this.

over-analyzing lies.

Read by themselves they actually have their own hidden meaning...that perhaps there are only ever words... well done my Sister...
