Three little words

Three Little Words

Heavy as lead
Three little words can be
When pride won't yield
Claiming you haven't the need

Painful as cancer
Three little words can be
When used to slur
Those different than me

Comforting like a blanket
Three little words can be
When life is overwhelming
And only darkness you see

Helpful, brutal, caring
Three little words can be
The power they have
Can alter your destiny
