Power of Words

The joy and the pain
exist only within this moment
flowing as the melody of a song
birthing the strongest of passions
unearthing feelings
that were long forgotten
 Many times
not seeing
or knowing how we feel
one thing wishes will never change
words may grow old
but there power continues to move
hearts, minds, and souls
as a song it may end
but the fire of them is still there
