Empty minds.....What does that mean?Writing words that only make sense to you?Make you get goose bumps.Get a tear in your eye?Empty minds.....Meaning that what is logical to me, is not logical to you?I find that hard to believe.We feel so much together that is the same.I understand you and you understand me.I like to lick the...

Words on a paper,Piercing my heart.My eyes blur before me,As I read the words, words, words.....Spelling it all out before me.I think I must have been the last one to realizeThat you didn't want me anymore.All written on a piece of paper.Words you couldn't say to my face.Words whispered behind my back.Words shared with someon...
