With Words

with words we cursed
feigned laughter
then ducked

with words we whispered
touched lips
then fucked

with words we transgressed
improvised apologies
then smirked

You know I would laugh at this one it is so neat,
but I think that some of the parts could have taken longer, lol

There are a million reasons to believe in yourself,
So find more reasons to believe in others..

Some situations just beg for words- and you give them. In neat quantity. It's like a whole week with a brand new woman/man: awkward, then not, hot, then comfortable.

Thanks for that :)

I have actually pondered over additional stanzas but I always came back to these core bits.

Oh words are indeed one of lives untapped apparatuses.

I was going for three examples of how words lead to, and get us out of situations.

In ink,
