Words Are the Soldiers

Words are the soldiers Letters form words they are my fabric Brought together without hate or prejudice Compose messages of truth and often tragic Ending lives creating boundaries we call justice created equal because words are there for all of us to use free from prejudice, love, and hate words to shape our civilizations to express our views offer praise to the deserving and for the hated seal their fate innocent by their unspoken intent tone and colour do not exist weapons of mass destruction ever present miss used, miss quoted. miss understood evil motives will persist words misused to bring us fear contentious agendas are driven by the needs of the few truthful or not once given a voice can draw us near command our attention and offer direction when we don't know what to do victimized by the intentions perceived guideline created, policies initiated twist the truth, hide proof until and make us believe to protect what we love and condemn who is hated spoken in tones to enlighten, inform and insight letters placed side by side to create a word ignite our souls to learn of atrocities and fight for what we believe to be right the most powerful weapon in the hands of power never heard
