It's amazing...the power of words
Given meaning by those who would listen
For words alone mean nothing
Dust in the spanse of eternity
But...
Strung together with other words
And they can mean the world
To me...and to you
I read the words you've written
And I realize that,
To another,
They would mean nothing.
But to me,
They mean emotion,
They mean power,
They mean hatred...and love.
And I recieve the message
And I realize it is nothing but words.
Words that stand alone, like dust.
But when you writ them
And when I read them...
Together we gave them meaning
You and I
You, the writer. I, the reader
We gave the meaningless, meaning
We gave what meant nothing, everything
You and I
We created the world together
And they, the words we have,
They can do anything we want them to
As long as You and I
Have each other.
For words mean nothing if not heard.

- Description: My friend and I, we were texting each other. It was a pretty deep conversation. I read one of his replies, and one phrase stuck with me (the title). I saw that that phrase alone would mean nothing to anyone except for us. It really put into perspective how powerful simple words can mean to others and yet nothing to me. I thought of how he felt writing what he did and how I felt reading and responding to it. If I wasn't there to receive them would they still mean anything…Trippy, huh? Heh~
