"Because it's only words, and words are all I have, to take your heart away." ~BeeGees, Words
Can you fall
in love with words? Because I think I have. I think I appreciate the beauty of
these things far more than the beauty of her folded lips. I think I appreciate
the company of these words far more than the company of the ensued silence
between us.
I wonder why
that is? Is that because I am a loner? I believe not. I think it’s to do with
security. I think it’s to do with belongingness.
I feel I
belong with words and they belong to me.
They are my constant reminders that not all life breathes.
They give me
hope in the direst of places and love in all its faces. They make me believe in
impossible things, make me believe that we are more alike than we think but at
the same time, we are made in peculiar ways and have more ability than we know
to achieve the heart’s widest desires.
They leave
me at times wondering, is our soul restricted to this world? Not at all. Words
put forth the astounding fantasies in the most plausible manner. They dream up
thousands of worlds. Can you believe it, a single mind of mortal existence
capable of something so phenomenal?
