Words

I love you

I need you

I am nothing without you
Don’t believe them

But I need them

How do I unbelieve them if I am a writer, a poet, a lover of books?

Words always have meaning and always hold weight.

If I did not use them I would never think straight.

My thoughts move 100 mph

Words are my knight that finds me and rescue me from the hidden figures in the night

The abuse of them is what has caused us all to fight
