Words are not just talk
In what they have to say

Words that go unmentioned
Can make or break a day

Words can lift you up
Or they can put you down

Words can put you off
Or they can bring you round

Words can breathe the truth
Then exhale in lies

Words can answer this
Words can question why

Words can be an afterthought
Or no thought at all

Words can find the lonely
Words can save the lost

Words can make their way
Helping to explain

Words if not used properly
Can set the world a-flame

Words can be gently whispered
Even screamed out loud

Words can leave a blister
At the slightest sound

Words can brick relationships
Building up of walls

Words are met with promises kept
When used for the good of all
