We 'Speak'

We use our words,

our mouths make sounds

to form phrases

but we do not speak.

Well, they do not.

How can one speak if

all they can say are words of

hurt, of gossip?

To speak is to feel,

to speak is to care.

Hurt does not care,

all Hurt feels is low.

Why do they fixate

on pain or rather,

causing pain?

Is there no more to live for?

Is there no meaning?

I long to find out

because I am

baffled.
