What I want my words to do to you--
I want my words to make you smile and laugh,
I want them to make you stop and think.
I want you to think my words have wit and craft,
I want you to think they have meaning and link.
I want my writings to make your bones tingle,
I want them to snatch your heartstrings,
I want them to make you cry so much your tears will always mingle,
I want them to chill your spine and make your blood sing.
I want my words to do a lot of things,
But out of everything I want my words to share,
What I really need is for you to know they're there.
