Words

By Aurora_Light

words can be powerful, meaninful,
full of hope and joy, love and happiiness.

words can be hurtful and rude,
full of spite and hatefull, greed and betrayal.

people say things they dont mean,
they say things that they do.

words are taken for granted,
words like hi and how are you.

they are great and powerful,
yet physical cant leave a bruise.

their power lies in the way their said,
and the preson who says those words to you.

    great intelligent piece, love the taken for granted part, there once was a time when things like that did mean something now those words are very empty to most.

    Much truth here. Too often the repercussions of our words are not considered before their use. I hope that no one has left any permanent marks on you with their words.
