and when i find you
will i find you?
the words dont matter
any more
they sound the same
and embarrass me
because
they mean something
so different
than the last time
i said these
same words
again

Truth enough. And they will mean something different the next time you say them. And when we read them. That's the joy (and frustration) on being a people! Nicely said, too.
ReplyDeletei think that's one of the reasons i love words and reading so much, the words mean something different to each of us. we bring our own ideas/thoughts/memories/histories to the table so each poem, song, story, etc. touches us differently, yet some how the same.
ReplyDeleteJCN - thats exactly how it is. but it does amaze me each time.
ReplyDeleteCK - it really is. and i love to come back to things over and over for that reason.
