The most beautiful words are silent

unspoken

passed from eye to eye

in silence

but spoken loudly and clearly

with no sound

sounds invented and created

cannot be trusted

should not be trusted

feelings passed from eye to eye

speak more clearly than any word

The gentle touch of a finger 

can hold more emotion

than a ship full of words

which jump at the ears

like deseased music

changing their meanings

as they will

like the eyes

the touch is real

and true

when the ship full of words is sinking

we must talk in silence

and love loudly and clearly.
