Will-For-Words
I will hold it over her always
Even when my arms shake
Even when the earth quakes
Even when my heart breaks
I will hold it over her
Even when she seems okay
Even when she’s lost her way
Even when I'm old and grey
I will hold it over her forever
He held fast as days went by
He would not let her in
Though she pleaded, though she cried
He’d never let her win
As time swept past and love took hold
His arms began to tire
Did he dare to bare his soul?
Give in to her desire?
A trust had formed and with regret
He dropped his precious wall
The sweet relief, he’d not forget
Of giving her his all
Beneath one simple word lies the power to change perceptions.
Perceptions changed by simple words leave the world rife with judgement.
A world rife with judgement is no place to live.
