Living by Words

Isn't it strange how words turn into unforgettable phrases
How sentences manage to denote love, hate, despair...
And the moment words turn themselves into a fluent speech
A speech, seeking to convince and inspire...

There is one question brought back together by words
Which is formed by four magical and meaningful words 
THE question most women wish to hear at least once 
Because it will bring hope and long forgotten dreams back to life 


But there are other sort of words, another kind
Those vicious words we wish we could forget
Words that scare our hearts away
Words that keep us apart without turning back

Someone's life may depend on the right words
Everybody's desires are expressed by words
And so, we find ourselves under a spell performed by words
But the brilliance of our minds allows us to dream on other worlds

Sometimes we care too much on choosing the perfect words
We seek to express our own intentions
While we look for the right directions
An obsessive act dominates and so we don't say the words

We willingly chose to remain silent
And by being too careful, too fearful we forget to express
By doing so we miss out that defining, magical moment
When we freely get to say what we want without distress

A Word, A Feeling, An Utopy...

O! Love 
What are you?
What have you become? 
What are you expected to be?


O! Love
Nothing more than a few phonemes combined
together they create a magnificent sound
a sound everybody wishes to hear 
a sound which leaves us all marvelled and blind


O! Love
Nothing more than one word
and yet, so much more, 
a feeling, O! yes
a feeling which entangles lives together
for an eternity yet to come


O! Love
People wait their entire lives for you
but, are you real?
perhaps you are mainly a product of our imagination
maybe you only exist in our minds 
in our perfect world where everything is possible
will we ever find you?


O! Love
An utopic thought 
waiting to be achieved
An emotion
waiting to be fulfilled


O! Love
Passionate and true, 
Impulsive and wild,
and yet heart-breaking and devastating...
but at the end
we all long for you to come
we all wait for that epic arrival
the one that will forever change the course of our lives.
