Your words hold weight
Like a beautiful woman
With that beautiful shape
That leaves
A man’s mouth agape
No matter how much
I drink and eat
Get hungry
They leave food on my plate
At this rate
I won’t be able to lose it
The weight
So all I can do is
Pass it on
Share
Show someone else
The meaning of care
Your words hold weight
Enough
Gold
That enables me to create
A graven image
And have it burned
And after learn
Something great
Like
Scribbles on a tablet
Your words hold weight
And this last part
Is specific
Maybe a little late
But I would have been privileged
If
I held your weight
Felt it flow off my tongue
Or from
The page filled with lines
That I used my hands
To caress and create
And that last line wasn’t
Too great
But the imagery
Is just a sample
Of how deep
The motivation goes
And because
I never showed you personally
Or face to face
My appreciation
For the beauty or the shape
And knowledge says
What you possess
Is too great
For one weak man to control
Or one strong man
Who doesn’t see your strength
Or how great
It is to have a woman
To himself
Whose words hold weight
