make sure what you say is what you mean

Make sure the words you say
Are the words you mean
Make sure you love her before you say it
Make sure you truely do
That one time he spoke to her
It gave her hope
Just the way he spoke
The way he said hi
Made her think and sigh as she waved goodbye
Soon to learn everythings a lie
Oh how she wants to die
Make sure you love her before you say it
Make sure you truly do
Or a girl like me may believe
May have hope that things are ok
Or I may just sigh
That girl walked away
But not to see another day
Just to sigh one more time
And to understand he lied
She to will lie

A feeling of hopelessness is strongly felt in this piece. The reader is left to form their own thoughts on how she will lie. Will she lie to others the way she was lied to, or will she lie to herself and believe everything is okay . Well done once again.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
