His Story

He talked of living
     Like he'd never seen the sun
He talked of people
     Like they set him on the run
He talked of feeling
     Like a constant force within
He talked of crying
     Like a scar that weakened him
He talked of loving
     Like his only saving grace
He talked of fighting
     Like the world was what he faced
He talked of going
     Like it happened every day
I talked of nothing
     For I had no words to say
