Did You Know
Did you know?
The power of words,
Can brighten our day,
Or change our sky above,
To a dark shade of grey.
The power of actions,
Can lighten our load,
Or make us feel as though,
We are about to explode.
The power of family,
Can make everything okay,
Or create pain and havoc,
We feel every single day.
The power of love,
Can be the best feeling ever,
Or ultimately it becomes,
A never-ending endeavor.
The power of trust,
Can create bonds like no other,
Or cause pain and suffering,
By breaking the heart of another.
The power of relationships,
Can carry us through all,
Or break our hearts to pieces,
Causing us to fall.
The power of anger,
Can shed light on the day,
Or cause a complete breakdown,
Digging our grave to lay.
The power of knowledge,
Can help us grow,
Or as we heard you say,
Make us feel very low.
The power of determination
Can help push through the dark,
Or be the underlying cause,
Of that disturbing mark.
The power of loyalty,
Can be all we ever needed,
Or once it is broken,
We let it be superseded.
The power of pain
Can keep us alive,
Or sooner or later,
Begin our countdown from five.
The power of now,
Can fix all things broken,
Or choosing to do nothing,
But hand in your final token.
The power of choice,
Can bring things to a mend,
Or with the wrong decision,
Be the beginning of the end.
The power of life,
Can be a blooming flower,
Or in an instant,
Be switched off with no power.
