Freeing The Words

Kurt Philip Behm

The greatest pleasure

the absence of pain

The greatest freedom

relinquishing gain

The greatest message

the one from inside

The greatest secret

the hardest to hide

 

A dollar given

 a blessing earned

A lesson taught

 a lesson learned

A truth in waiting

 a lie untold

A promise whispered

 a pledge on hold  

 

When voices call

the doubtful pander

When questions breed

they’re left unanswered

When lost in space

there’s room for motion

When Venus reigns

new love’s devotion

 

Written in code

the warning’s hidden

Freeing the words

— tomorrow given
