1,013,913 Words


There are 1,013,913 words

in this language of ours

They can speak,

beauties and triumphs

the saddness and grief

even tales

of love and longing

 

All of these words

just the pitiful

rearrangement

of the same 

26 letters

over and over

same letters,

           same words,

                     same stories

 Except one

no such word or tongue

deemed worthy of you,

even the most elegant,

don't carry proper meaning

 

1,013,913 words,

In this language of ours,

and none are worthy

of you.
