What are words?


What are words? 
but a mere creation of humans.
No words can describe how I feel,
 when I'm without you.
No words can explain the feeling I get,
 when I see you.
No words can explain the feelings I feel.
 
There are no words in this world,
 to describe my pain;
No words in this world,
 to describe what I want to say.
Not enough ways to say, 
what I need to say.
 
Yet, what are words, anyway?
