Words are words

and letters linger

on light lit pages

dark places of the mind

glowing on lines

wanting release

cavernous peace

emotional fragments

shared and nurtured

they would realize

words link subtle minds

lock in pieces

making connections

fractured recollections

she’ll pick his lock

watch the clock

tick tock taps

the door now open

and in it a fire

how warm the burn

emotions never spurned

voices in her head

just words

his wording expressions

encased in letters

link linked

through distance not mentioned

words are words

and letters linger

their stroking fingers

create a world

not near intentioned

product of their invention

because she spoke

with tick tock taps

and he listened

with his eyes…

Interesting write - the spell words can weave around people...

"dark places of the mind / glowing on lines". - I love that line - writing can release the deepest thoughts or actions or feelings of a person...things sometimes they wouldn't make known face to face...

I enjoyed reading this. Really amazing writing and photo.

Oh Craig, such an amazing web of words you weave...I didn't want to stop feeling the intensity of each line, the deep desire to connect, the sensual pleasure of discovery and mutual respect for the written word which allows us to dwell in each other's world, participating, empathising, relating......it is such joy to discover each other like that :)

Beautiful. Um...I don't know what to make of this, how to conclude the idea behind it. but I thought it was a piece that tenderly flowed with emotions, and I loved your choice of words, espcially the last few lines. keep writing.

The perfect word in the perfect lphrase, like a perfect gem in a perfect setting; the best writers understand the subtle nuances of variance among words of similar meaning. Your poem is a perfect jewel.

this is such a beautiful & thoughtful write...i love the short, choppy lines and the subtle repetition and rhyme used throughout the piece. A twisted, unintentional relationship spawned from words that are just words...

I love the way this is written. From the choice of font, to the amount of lines, to the words themselves.

Your own spin of creativity on what writing is like is exquisite.

BAM!
