WOR(L)DS
Lately when we meet, at last, in the Free World that my mind has conjured
You try to speak, but I put my fingers to your lips and tell you… “Hush!”
I can only think about speaking after I have held you, weeping for several hours
Perhaps for several days I just hold you and weep… no words
The world where we can be together only exists in the realm of words
Words give the Free World a sense of possibility that we can consider
It is like the world that Einstein created with his theories
A world that no man could ever actually visit
But by considering his words, men are given a clearer sense of reality
In the reality of our true togetherness, however, words will be unnecessary
They will only remind us of the eons during which togetherness was just a word
So we will hold each other, long time, and we will weep for joy that we are together
And we will weep to think of how long we were not
