Letters

Words may come and words may go, and there are some we’ll never know.  But 
the secret lies in the letters you C, for they control the mystery of what we will B.

In the North we say A, and are often surprised by an O, and nothing says failure 
like an F, or causes distress like a P.  Most of our troubles are caused by I, and 
our love that is given to U.

   The	        Good	                   	and	            Bad		of   X
                     Exclusive		                              Exclude
                     	Exceed			         Excess
	Explain			         Excuse
	Expose			         Execute
	Exercise			         Exhaust
	Explore			         Extinct		
                     Expedite			         Expect	
	Expand			         Explode
	Excel			         Exaggerate
	Expatriate			         Excommunicate
                     Extend			         Expire

		N has the power to:
			        Enter
			        Enroll
	                        	        Enlist
			        Engage	
			        Enable
			        Entertain
			        Enjoy	
			        Entitle	
			        Entrust
			        Encourage
			        Enlighten
			        Endure
			        Envelop
			        Endow, and
			go to the Nth degree.

But the one that continues and never dies, is the letter Y.

Death

Death came today, wearing its mask of time,
Sneaking thru any window or door, searching to
satisfy its craving for more.
Creeping in thru my  window for an uninvited stay,
sucking away the sounds of life,  love, and 
everything in its way.

The Eyes Have It

Is seeing believing? , or can the eyes;
Trace your every move,
Can they see the music,
Do they show your hunger?
Can they feel my pain?
Do they speak to you?
Do they drink in my sorrow?
Touch your heart? , seize your Soul?

Or is it the blind, which have perfect vision,
Because they can see:
what you mean,
see the magic in a moment,
see real love,
they can see tomorrow,
or all His glory.

Or is it all, just right before eyes?

Silence

Silence keeps you locked up
Your emotions hidden, your dreams unreachable.
Silence keeps you from growing, your values not shared
Silence does not allow pain, hurt, or sorrow to be shared.
Silence says you're right , they don't understand.

Silence keeps the struggle within, another drink on the bar,
Another needle ready, another doughnut to be eaten.
Silence says you'll never amount to anything, you'll never do it.
Stay where you are, it's safe, blend in, be a face in the crowd,
part of the scenery,, a picture on the wall.

Silence allows the extra step, where no one knows, if you fail or not,
Silence allows you to be there without participating,
Silence allows the slow death within,
Silence allows talking, only with yourself
Silence allows you to keep delaying, in finishing the day,
Silence allows the prison, to be of you, yourself.

Silence is not Golden.
