Poem

Empty Words

Don’t take words into your mouth
if you don’t mean them
and feel them
They make you more of a lie
an empty shell
more of a hurting memory
I’d rather forget

One thought on “Empty Words

  1. Obviously poetry is subjective, and I can’t know what you mean by these words – their meaning for you is unique. But sometimes the “hurt” is the very thing that makes us feel alive. Sometimes we almost ache to feel the pain.
