Words versus Actions!
When two people are trying to get together,
What will it take to make things better,
They start off talking to ease in the charm,
But too much of it will set off an alarm,
At some point the Words although well said,
Will have to be backed up with Actions and put to bed,
The Actions between them at some point must begin,
For if there are only Words the relationship will not win,
There must be a balance between the two,
Too many Words and no Actions will not do,
So put forth the Words to secure the trust,
Then put forth the Actions to satisfy your lust.
