robin machorro - coming from me

they say spoken words lead to a bond
they can bring you together as if
you were one
but if my words were spoken
how would you take it?
it would probably break you
because coming from me, my words
would be too strong
you have never heard me speak
of things that make me weep
you never heard anything
coming from me
