Words to express and words to conceal.
To create a dream or describe the real.
Words to engage and words to reject.
To be in agreement or to curtly correct.
Words to make love and words to make war.
To hide what we know or share what we saw.
Words meant to sooth and words meant to fight.
To darken a day or lighten a night.
They’ve no life of their own or are worth e’en a cent,
But that which we give them with certain intent.
To use them with care with our own inner light
Whenever we use them to speak or to write
Is a goal for all people, but one hard to achieve-
When internal impulses appear on our sleeve.
Words are forever and words can be lost.
They seem to be free but can carry a cost.
Knowing and caring are two different things-
As is being aware of what words can bring.
Words can sing and words can cry-
To express our deep feelings or reject and deny.
How we use them defines our own way
To all those who read or hear what we say.
AMAZING.
