the purpose of words

the purpose of words
I have now known
their bearing,
a cutting and
puncturing
through the soul
a releasing of
cherished things
that could not speak
but written in code and
carefulness
an ease as swift as
the tongue of hands
could utter
and the shaping
they begin to take
have all but built
a mountain of solace
