A picture of words

You got to look to listen

you got to see to hear

with a vision so blurry

the picture remains clear.



I see my place to stand

and it seems so far away.

you put me in this place

with not a chance to say

the words you need to hear

the words that never fade.

the words that bring the smiles

to enlighten everyday.



You got to look to listen

you got to see to hear

please stand aside me

so I can see you clear.



Im much better with the words

that are locked up in my head

no need to listen

cause nothing is being said.



a chance to freeze the moment

with you and me at hand.

A dream upon reality

standing to be your man.



So hear the silence

that I speak to you.

gather your thoughs

and take a chance at something new.

Even though you cant hear nothing...dont mean nothing is being said.... "dont judge a book by its cover"

This is very deep and unless a person has experienced the same thing, he/she probably won't understand. But I think that there are too many people who only half listen and half see because they are so full of ME ME ME that they can't hear what the other person it showing, telling, saying, living...right in front of them. Words are cheap, but "show me" will last a lifetime. Good job.
