Words

Words once spoken Can't be broken Too late you find the damage done Either uplifting Or unforgiving Words are best spoken in love Can't take them back Once they've left your lips From the tongue speaks the heart Rue the day They've had their say Truthfully in who you are Best be thinking Before speaking Avoiding pain from what's been heard Horses take bits Rudders turn ships Be careful how you steer your words

Words are best spoken in love and heart also speaks through beats. Words are amazing ever in life. We expect more sweet words avoiding pain. An interesting poem is very well drafted.

Really good, Mike. Most of what I regret are words - for they are as assaulting as the physical.
