My Words Are My Keeper

He said, I wouldn’t make it… Because I care too much about people I wondered, how that could be true Until doubts filtered through the blinds I almost drowned in pain watching them harmed But, with faith I kept on swimming in the torrents I have survived and here I am to speak - My words are my keeper - - His silence is his enemy - Heidi Sands 6/15/18

Powerful use of words and thoughts Heidi. Unspoken words, can be a blessing or the downfall of two people.
