Four little words.
So small, so innocent
Yet when spoken together,
words cannot be unsaid
Their power, once summoned,
cannot be unread
And lives are changed forever

Four little words:
“Let’s do this now”
A plan sparks into life
“Will you marry me?”
A husband takes a wife

Four little words:
“What could go wrong?”
Did you need to ask?
“I am leaving you”
Some love not meant to last

Four little words:
“We won the lotto!”
We'll nevermore be poor
“Just one more drink”
Then none, forever more

Four little words:
“I believe in you”
Inspired to perform
“Your father is gone”
And we begin to mourn

Four litle words:
“I have a dream”
A call out to the world
“We are at war"
Such horrors now unfurled

Four little words:
“It will be fine”
But will it, are you sure?
“I renounce my faith”
My God shoved out the door

Four little words:
“I love you babe”
The words that warm a heart
“There’s been an accident”
And lives are torn apart

Four little words:
“Let’s have a baby”
A daughter, or a son?
“I’ll see you soon”
That day may never come

Four little words:
“I love a man”
His closet left behind
“We need to talk”
Okay, but please, be kind

Four little words
Not small
Not innocent
Life changing
