Words rise from gaping mouths
Empty sounds with meaningless power
Light pierces from their eye, from your eye
Piercing my heart, pith giving fire
consuming my whole
Words rise from gaping mouths
Empy sounds with meaningless power
Warmth spreads from my hand,
your touch drying my tear-soaked depths
stilling my shivers
Words rise from gaping mouths
Empty sounds with meaningless power
Saying more in their silent omissions
Than in thousands of speeches before
Unlocking desire, hope, future
though just one of many locks
Words rise from gaping mouths
Empty sounds with meaningless power
I don't know if I meant to add more stanzas, the apparent pattern would seem to say "yes" but maybe ending there was supposed to be a resounding "no."
