Little Words

The little  words invented as we loved
Now have no other  speaker but myself.
Lost, unique, the husband, once beloved,
These special  words  expressed   our married love.
In my  speech , these words no longer live
I  cannot  use those words, our loving  wealth.
The chosen  words  invented as we loved
Now have no other   listener but myself
