I listen but never hear
those words we used to say,
shout with glee day in day out
now it is only I who say them

why it means so much
to hear I'm not sure,
3 syllables alone can't be
the cure to my uncertainty

to many they are just a means
carry no weight, are dropped
like empty nutshells, the meat
enjoyed and eaten

have I spoke them so often
you question my sincerity
the verity of my heart
the clarity of my vision

the words don't stand alone
were born in moments intimate
were fed by acts unselfish
will die without an echo
