from a great writer

How i wish
I could talk to you
And you would answer
Me in words
It's in me, I know,
To ask for the easy way
And it's in you, I know,
To ask more of me.
You've done so much
and I'm sorry that
Sometimes I forget.
And when you speak to me
In more than words,
I forget to listen.
So touch my heart
And remind me
That words
Are only words.
But you holding my hand
And leading me through life
Is a much more true way
To show
Your love.
