If words were a cover I could wrap you up tight and keep you safe and warm
If words were gold I could make you wealthy as a king on his throne
If words were light I could show you the way through the darkness
If words were food I could make sure you never went hungry
If words were colors I could give you a rainbow that never ended
If words were rain I could shower you with cool droplets on a warm day
If words were love I could give you more than you would ever need
But words are none of these things
Yet words are all I have given to you
And that makes me sad...
