Careless Words

The words can mean so much,
but little be taken seriously.
Said from the heart portrayed by a touch,
Need not it be said carelessly.
Like the sun returning from an eclipse,
The vibrant beauty too good to be seen.
The words are like a river flowing from our lips,
And on your shoulder I shall lean.
