Truth is stronger than fiction;

Silence more potent than words;

A kiss on the brow quenching than lip-lock,

Anger weaker than chords.

A sigh hangs heavier than regret;

Regrets rise quickerthan a tear;

Tears sting frozen from parting,

Reconciliation hesitant from fear.

Hope floats lighter than an eyelash,

Hurt bleeds deeper than a scar;

Life smiles hopeful as a heartbeat,

As Death moves closer than a star.
