Words

Words, their power to sway

Makes minds listen and obey

The heart doesn’t have ears

It speaks, through its tears


Words, of joy and sorrow

From the mind we borrow

But tears, they are ours

When happiness overpowers


Words, strung like a garland

Speak the mind’s parlance

Not literate in such ways

The heart cannot offer praise


Words, we listen to and stay

The mind holds each, to weigh

The weightless heart has no say

It knows, love will outweigh
