Words

They were just words

Whispered in silence

And the darkness.

They were just words

Whispered in the air

And the shadows.

They were just words

From my heart

And my soul.

They were just words

I could never say aloud

But spoke in actions

Like a touch, a caress,

A dance, a kiss.

I wanted you to know

And to feel

And to embrace

The words I gave you.

They were just words

You never heard

Through the dreams

And the sorrow

And the tears.

They were just words

I will never say aloud

But will save them forever

Or until you return

To gather them for yourself
