Words allow me
To dance in the rain
When the sky is clear
And enjoy the sun
When it is tucked far out of sight
Words allow me
To visit hospital beds
And breath life into
Decaying lungs
They allow me to kill
All the insecurities
Dancing on mirrors
Words take me on vacations
And on adventure trips
Sometimes they are out there
Whispering encouragement
To legs that are too shaky to leave
Situations that torment their peace
And sometimes they are
In night clubs
Dancing in tune with hearts
That needed that drink
Words do for me
More than
I have done for myself
Action could never speak
Louder than words
Words linger around longer
Than action lasts!
