Wordz At Large
A poem cannot break a heart
That does not have a crack
Does not buck the tide of time
Give you something back
Yet a rhyme can strike chords
In major minor keys
Hold you as you cry
With haunting harmonies
Words can channel feelings
Marred marrow understands
Not all endings satisfy
Even with the best laid plans
So if you need some moment
For sojourns to the past
Lyrics lift a lightning rod
To mourn pains borne en masse
And if there is a message
That is what I have learned
Life is of waters sailed
Not in bridges burned
A poem gives not the gift of flight
To a soul devoid of song
But if soon, you rekindle tune
The sonnets sing along
