Letters
Love, l-o-v-e, 4 letters,
Hate, h-a-t-e, 4 letters,
The decomposing transition of a word,
Rejoice 4 letters hold the key,
Mourn 4 letters destroy.
All that we are letters do tell,
Letters bind and letters break the chain,
So much in so little
Yet break the giant without finger raised.
Tears flowing, letters unspoken, hearts broken.
The giant weeps not for what he lost,
But for wavering conviction.
