Words

Words, powerful things

Some may inspire,

Others trample.

Words, weird things

Do they mean what they say?

You never know.

Words, strange things

They fail us when happy

They fail us when sad.

Words, tricky things

Sometimes they clear

Sometimes confuse

Words, relentless things

They make life easy

They make life hard

Words, endless things

Life depends on them,

The ones you say & the ones you don’t.
