Linear Liaisons

After all, they are only words
They are  only ourselves......revealed
Dreams, being birthed
Dreams, dying
Plans and proposals
Pieces and wholes
Deep wells we dive down into
Mountains we climb for the glorious view

Linear liaisons, strewn as pearls, precious
Placed gently, adorning the hearts of lovers
Poetry passed down as heirlooms
Priceless treasures, these words are....
after all

They are only words
Language rolling off the tongue
Landing within the labyrinth of eager ears
Setting to beating our lust
or
Breaking apart our trust

Powerful, these words
Spoken, long labored silence broken
Written, sweet sonnets to that certain someone
Thoughts, shared  freely or staunchly guarded
Fears.....crushing us, chasing us

Healing or hurtful
Choose them....wisely
They will meet their mark
and be felt
Magical, mystical vibrations they are
Lifting us high
or
Knocking us down, so low

Choose wisely
