Careless Talker

Careless talker

When emotions are
Bottle up in side
We long to be hug
But still make it hide

But comes a day
We let our guards down
And then some can use it
To do you so wrong

I read a verse from the
Bible on the shelf
Says be careful what you say
A careless talker hurts their self

We all have times 
When we are weak
And some attention
Sometimes we seek

Some can use that
To brake your heart
And give you more pain
Than you had from the start

Not all who smiles
You can call your friend
If they betrayed you once
 They will do it again

Then pretend its ok
To push you to the edge
And silently laughs
Pointing to the ledge

A really good friend
Is like a personal starker
Who will stop you from? 
Being a careless talker

If you have a good friend
Who really cares for you?
Then appreciate them
For they are very few

This world can be cruel
But we must face the day
Never knowing what tomorrow
Is going to bring our way

Just be wise your words
Says the bible on the shelf
And a careless talker
Will only hurt their self
