JoJo's Blog- Peek into my Life

Three Words

Say somethin'
Speakin on demand has never been my forte.
When I was a kid my response would be "somethin'"
Now that the years have passed such smart antics seem out of place.
I wish I knew just what to say when you clearly demand more.
I only have 3 words.
They are stated daily.
But it is so much more than that.
They are worth more than the weight of the 8 letters that form the statement of my life.
I can't imagine not having you.
That sentence seems like it never meant as much until they were uttered in your presence.
Not to take anything from those whose blood runs through my veins;
But to be in the greatest four letter word ever created is ecstasy!
I have always felt that I can express myself poetically best when I have something to rant about.
That rant is what I have to brag about--
What I have to cherish;
What I have to embrace;
What I have to enamor.
It is with these sentiments that I realize I do not know what to say;
Because I have everything to say.
Everything is felt and encompassed in 5 vowels and 3 consonants.
If one four letter word is exchanged for one other;
Not much has changed.
The substantive difference is that there has obviously been an absence of the object of the emotion.
Everything is then felt and encompassed in 4 vowels and 4 consonants.
Someone is missed and equality is reached;
So, I say somethin';
Somethin' you've heard before.
But it's not your ears I attempt to please.
It's not a matter of saying what you want to hear.
It's a matter of wearing my heart on my sleeve;
Because there is nothing better to speak than the truth.
The truth in simplicity.
Simplicity that is often underestimated,
Often undervalued,
Occassionally misunderstood.
Regardless they can't be replaced;
Because you are irreplaceable;
So, when I say somethin'
And you want to hear more
Listen to all the unspoken passion
That lives within the breath taken to speak 3 simple words...
