The Words are the Title

Words were always my specialty and my strength.
I won hearts with my words.
And in the privacy of my own space
My words still thrill and delight

But in the midst of the coming light
My words deserted me and caused me blight
And sadly I must distance myself
From the words of love my pen most eloquently wrote

That took this oft lonely boy
From the depths
Of loneliness and despair
To the epitome of new heights

Such is the way of life, sometimes
That which brings one
To soar on an eagle’s wing
To realize in the end
My life’s ride was merely a dream.
