Words and Silence
We hold them close to our hearts deep within.
Words we can use to cuase hurt and sin.
Words can do anything.
Words can be turned to music as you sing.
Words can heart you to though.
They can put out that light in your heart that glows.
Words can and will let you frown.
They can turn your heart and your stomach upside down.
They often make you happy to.
They can make you smile when feeling blue.
They make you smile
Grin
Glow
Gleam
And beam.
But words mean so much more than they seem.
Words are not always needed.
And not alwaye headed.
I myslelf am stuck between those lines.
I dont speak much, mouth of a mime.
Look across the room and see a girls eyes.
Then she smiles at you to your surprise.
You nod at a man walking by to show your respect.
For its rude to look and neglect.
Silence though has anger to.
A finger in the air faceing you.
A hatefull look at you across a fence.
But you glare back without a flinch.
Words and silence are always used.
But whatever the action you do.
Stop and take a minute to think it through.
