words are uttered sincerely yet lost of meaning

words are uttered sincerely yet lost of meaning

the words are uttered sincerely yet lost of meaning
all gone between a voice and the ears’ impression
muttered or spoken clearly either dim or gleaming
creation of a pure choice of ecstasy or depression
the words are uttered sincerely yet are lost in time
seconds pause minutes wait as hours and days pass
spoken to be heard merely or ribbons that entwine
a heart mind and soul’s fate a seeping broken glass
the words are uttered sincerely yet lost in the inks
scratched and blurred pages crumpled in the trash
a thought was caught nearly complete as eyes blink
passed down across ages as the human lives thrash
words are uttered sincerely yet are lightly regarded
words are uttered sincerely yet are soon discarded
