Words can build us up,
Or words can break us down.
Words can be the reason,
We're dying on the ground.
Words could give us hope,
Words could cut the rope.
Words could be used to heal,
Words can say what isn't real.
Words can give us a reason to live,
Words can be why we don't give.
Words can be why we die,
Words can cause the holiest to lie.
Why are words so powerful,
Make us cry or make us feel wonderful.
Why do words hurt more than daggers?With words we could build up,
Yet we tell others to "F**k up."
And that is messed up.
When we hurt others with our lips,
And cause little ones to trip,
We use a gift given to us,
To make our mouth dangerous.
So use your words to be kind,
And be a blessing to the mind.
