Chapter Three of Living Words: Pain

What is Pain?

Is it looking at her smile from tens of thousand miles away and suppressing the urge to break?

Maybe its craving her touch and not being able to feel it?

Wanting to move the hair out her face when it covers her eyes?

The feeling of being hopeless because you aren't physically there to hold her when she needs it?

When she needs a shoulder to cry on?

Wipe away her tears?

Or maybe a hug to get  through the day?

How about not being able to hold her in your arms at night.

Not being able to wake up to her smile.

Craving the touch of her lips.

The fear of never getting it...

Being able to touch and not feel...

Something only they would be able to fully acknowledge,

Even if only for a short time.

Chapter Two of Living Words: Hope

What is Hope?

Is it looking at the moon each night and with a gracious sigh to whisper, "One more day"?

Or maybe nothing more then the twinkle in their eyes when they speak?

How about the bond they share when words of love are spoken?

Then again... Isn't that feeling something to be left to individuals?

Chapter One of Living Words: Happiness.

What is Happiness?

Maybe its the way her hair swoops down and covers her eyes?

Or how about the way her lips curl delicately when she smiles?

Perhaps its how her hazel eyes sparkle when she giggles?

Possibly it could be the way the sun reflects off of her fair ivory skin.

It could be,

But no body knows except for Him.

Then again maybe he himself does not know,

For all one knows it could be an empty list.

Because what matters is what happens between them.
