Scarring Words
Words
The things they do
The fights they cause
The hate they create
And the love they spread
For good or bad
For right or wrong
For the right and the good
Is where words belong
Some words may cut like a knife
And leave a bleeding wound
That will forever be scarred
Other words may heal
Build another up
And change the way you feel
The wrong words you say
Is a risk you take
To leave a scar
The words you let slip
Should always be kind
And should always be defined
As loving, caring, and good
Never leave a scar from the words you say
Because the scar you’ve caused
Will ALWAYS come back to cut you
