What Do We Use When Words Are Not?
What do we use when words are not?
What do we say when we cannot?
A sign? A picture? A drawing or etch?
For how shall we on paper express?
Do we use actions or movements, or mistaken shall we be?
For when we cannot speak, we cannot show, we cannot draw what we must say,
How shall we express our ways?
A lie shall we live, for we shall not speak?
A sham for eachother to whom we may teach!
For what if we did not hear, for what if we did not listen?
Would we realize all the sounds that we would be missing?
What if we did not see, did not at our sights look?
Must we feel and touch as we wait for something as it shook?
If we could not feel, we could not touch,
How would we to others share how we feel so much?
Must we feel and touch as we wait for something as it shook?
