Words

by Anne Garcia   Jun 27, 2008


There are words that are heard too much
Words that are no longer worth hearing
You wished you never heard of such
Because they are now words with no meaning

There are many words that are much too said
All used, worn out, words that shouldn't be anymore
'Cause pain is all those words have every lead
Why did those words have to be said for

Because words can be fake
Words can be real
Words can be all one can take
But, is it really what one may feel?

Words are just used to run away
To run from what caught up to you
But words can't protect you everyday
You'll eventually suffer and lose too

So, everyday, we should think before we speak
Choose careful words before we say
Tactfullness is what we should always seek
Not just now, but everyday

Words can also kill
Not physically but inside
You'll keep shooting until
All your pain and anger subside

You think and you regret
All those hurtful words you just said
That one person will never ever forget
And end up bringing it to their deathbed

    Anne, I thought this was a pretty fine poem. Words can really hurt
    Words can break hearts

    Your poem covers different dimentions of "words" and it all seemed sensible to me. I gave ya top marks for that.

    Wow. I loved this. It's very good. It's well written, and I like how it actually has meaning. It's based on things that happen everyday. People aren't careful to watch the words they use.

    Great job.

    5/5
