Unfamiliar Line

Words have meaning to impart, When "she reassured me with an unfamiliar line" I knew that soon our hearts would part As words show the heart's incline Sometimes you have to read between the lines To discern what's being said Then you'll see the sign and the deceit you're being fed As the sun begins to set Memories flash across my mind Her words do linger yet With echoes of her unfamiliar line

We must use caution, interpreting words through our pride, as looking between the lines is essential. Thank you for my excellent placement in your last contest, Joseph

Wouldn't it be great if people said what the meant and meant what they said? Imagine a world minus mountains of word trash. A good poem on the topic, I enjoyed taking it in ... CayCay

Reading between the lines is important but one must be careful not to interpret meanings to satisfy our ego.
