Twice I rang.
And another just in case.
To find you. May I once more hear you?
Again, after ____ years.

If I could sing you a song, it shall not be of loneliness
If I could write you a letter, it shall not be of deep and mad love
I shall leave it blank.
I shall let the music do the talking.
For puny words cannot express all the chaos inside our bodies.

"Love" "Hope" "Forever"
Such words, overused...."Promise"
"I swear" "Tomorrow"
"Truth"
Why should I degrade such words even more?

As I listen to the answering machine for the ___th time,
Each time I can hear it in your voice.
Such words, insincere.

or perhaps..
You couldn't find a better word?

"Goodbye forever"

Haha, what the hell, dude. None of the _____ words I can think of even remotely fit in the blanks.

Craziness. Good poem, but the blanks throw me.

lmao yeah XDD


They're meant to throw you off and make you guess/interpret it yourself :p

Actually the ___ in the actual poem is a number that stays hidden for reasons stated above, while the title is just "The ___ Word" because a title "___" is just even stranger XDD

So the ___ is technically a word, so yeah....i should sleep now XDD
