Words

Words can only be spoken But then again they can be written. But when written they have less or more meaning When spoken, they are ignored. So, when one wants others to stop And listen they sit and write. But no one can understand the feeling! For when they spoke it the feeling it was meant to be People took one look and dissed it Saying it just them being attention hungry. One is in pain One is in joy No one really cares They want them to shut up. When when gone those words They haunt all who refuse to listen Those who brush it off Those who just walk away. Then those once so called annoying words Not written, become more important And easily forgotten.

Words are used for communication purposes. When they do not communicate, they do not function as intended. You have expressed yourself well here.
