Three Words

Three words
Three words you could always say
Three words you never say
Three words could mean so much
Three words mean nothing to you
Three words coming from deep beneath me
Right through me
Beat me, uplift me
Raise me higher than ever before, kill me
A short phrase I say
I think
I wish I could say
Three words one sentence
Helping me to see
So much more than I have been
But foreign to my ears
