Power of Words and Silence
There is a power in words and there is power in silence
Words are loud and let you be heard
While silence people are unsure
Words vibrate through the air and bounce through the walls
Silence has no sound just muted calls
People turn when they hear a word not knowing what will be learned
But for silence people ignore for nothing cannot and will not be heard
Both words and silence can save a life or end one
They can keep you out of trouble when it comes knocking at your door
There is a power in words and a power in silence
But which one is stronger and in what situation?
