Echoes.
Shadow words
following on from long
after the words have gone.
Letters that still float
on the slipstream
that previous words leave.
I love you.
These words still haunt the otherwhere..
Spoken when things were clear,
before the storm shattered
the glassy air.
Gaseous word vapour
from yesteryear.
Words we should
have kept chained,
tightly tied,
gripped around our hearts.
in a locket.
The boat was sailing well
We shouldn't have rocked it.
we shouln't have even departed
that shoreside tide.
Echoes.
Shadow words.
Let those words slip.
Don't let them rip a hole
in your already worn heart.
Don't let regret, or fear stop your stride.
Find your step, and dance with pride.
Those echoed words would be around,
If you had kept them within,
only inside, they would have
screamed and cried.
Now instread they have
the whole universe
in which to reside.
