The Power of Words

Words have their own power which is mightier than any wielded weapon when use to strike with an intent to slay it can break a heart in an instant it can cut and wound so deep that healing takes time It can maim a person for life that makes him lose his self confidence and self esteem But Words have its healing power too which is stronger than any cure when uttered at the right moment when it is most needed to be heard like a soft whisper that soothes the heart or a sincere compliment that build confidence or a comforting words spoken with sincerity that assuage grief and allay fears

Powerful write, kabayan. As poets, we are in the special place to do both and with more impact than the next person. The written word has more power - either lethal or healing. May we all know when to withhold and when to release to achieve the most positive result. Great write. Kim :-)
