Words

I have the words
I have the silence 
I am the solitude
Word and words and words
Dreams and words
Dreams with no words
You and me in our world
No world and no words
Deaths hold
We go
Far away
Tears cry
Crows fly
Can I rest now? 
I have no words
I have no soul
Tu n'es plus là 
Me I must be here
You are not
I miss what is not
I have only one word left
Love

Short, crisp lines evoke quite a message about the "one word left," Arthur. I too often "miss what is not" so I can relate to the message. Well done! Love, carolyn
