ONLY WORDS: award winner

ONLY WORDS


Words and words and only words;
That’s all you have to give.
Though your words are sweet, I need
Much more than words to live.

By expressing sympathy,
Though you have played your part,
Yet somehow I wish you could
Feel the pain in my heart.

Eyes are mirrors of the heart;
Though silent, they tell more.
Honest looks often convey
The thoughts of a heart pure.

Once you learn to read the thoughts,
You will know what I need.
My dear, till then I’ll remain
Rather deprived, indeed.
