This poem appears in my poetry collection Coffee Shop Sessions: Whatever It Takes, Even If It Doesn’t Take available on Amazon.
I need words
I need better words
Words of joy
Words of healing
Words to console me in times of need
Words of understanding
Words to make me feel complete
Words of love
Words of compassion
Words that show a deeper meaning than what appears in front of me
Words that you cannot find
Words that you cannot express
Words that will never enter your heart or mind
And will never leave your lips
I need words to hang onto
Words that lift me up
Words that will make me want to come back to you
Words that will make me want a future with you
Words,
I need words
