Words
Aren’t words meant to hurt and heal us.
Why do we cry when they hurt?
But feel comforted when they heal.
Is it because of a lesson not learnt?
or we want them to obey how we feel.
Words are just words, innocent on both sides.
while humans enjoy using them footwear slides
To portray love or hate for another,
an enemy, neighbour, relative or a partner.
Humans are more guilty not them words.
Without humans they would remain there
unused as they mean no hate.
yet humans use them to harm.
unused as they mean no love.
but humans use them to speak love.
Why do we hate jiggered words?
But like the ones that make us
to smile, ear to ear, all day
and lure us to whatever one has to say.
Why don’t we hate the people who use.
those jiggered words instead of words?
Why don’t we like the people who use?
those lullabying words along with words.
At the end of the day
Words are just words, waiting to be used, right?
To heal and hurt
To love and hate.
