Your Words

Stunned, in utter dismay
Mouth agape,
my world just went gray.
Your words
just tore my universe apart
Ripped out every chamber of my heart.

Words are very powerful, indeed, Amy! They have the power to uplift and the power to destroy. They can bring joy or absolute devastation. I'm sorry you experienced the latter. Hope you are ok. Thanks for sharing this which was really well done by the way. Very expressive. Best wishes, Caroline.
