Empty Words

This is a poem I wrote on January 26, 2009. It's a poem from the point of view of a speaker who is having trouble believing what someone else is telling them.


I hear you speak
But I don't know if I can believe
A word of what you're saying
Time and time again
Your words turn out to be empty
And lack any real meaning
And don't have much truth
Behind them
As time goes on
It becomes easier and easier
To tune you out
Because I'm sure that once again
These will end up being empty words
