actions speak louder than words?
October 3, 2016
People say actions speak louder than words
they say show me, don't tell me
but I don't know...
Sometimes actions are fake and words could've made a patch
sometimes it could be cured with a word
cemented and fermented
repented or lamented
confirmed not ignored
light that feels right
a burst of sunshine scented sweeter than pine
...say the word and speak life
