A Few More Words – Friday 27th November 1998

A Few More Words

words strip me down
to a point where i can be judged
if you notice me pass
if you need to need me
do not hesitate to ask
because walking on your own
all through your life
it just does not seem fair
words captivate me
in an imaginary world
where the stage is balanced
and not sloping downwards

if i notice you pass
could i take you homeward
is that a way forward
is all this play acting
just because we are bored
if am with you in the dark
let’s hope we do not get caught
because to be without you
would like being apart
words reveal my quirks
my million and one flirts
and so many things i do
words are weapons which can hurt
most of all,
they reveal how i feel about you
