The Sentence
Words from my head appear on a page
Just like a beast released from its cage
The sentence becomes the thoughts from inside of my head
As all of the signals are turning from green to red.
The thoughts start to flow I wonder which sentence is next
It becomes much more than just a second guess
A cold wind is blowing, my mind starts to freeze
The sentence can bring the world down to its knees.
I think of the sentences that people say
Their lack of focus is what it displays
I think you need caution in the words that you chose
There’s nothing to gain, yet so much to lose.
I see the sentence much like the sea
Revealing the rhythms inside of me
They reach a peak only to subside
Below the surface the intentions will hide.
The sentence also becomes something that seals my fate
Seconds become hours and then it feels too late
The sentence shall become the consequence you paid
I find myself wanting to leave, yet I have just stayed.
A sentence is merely words in a row,
The seeds that you plant will be what you sow
As the thought start to blossom and then continue to grow
This is the time when all the intentions will show.
.
I guess we should take the time and believe what we say
Or the words become homeless with nowhere to stay
The words that come out can affect all we see
The words that we choose determine just who we will be.
