WORDS ARE POWERFUL
Words are powerful
In writing or speaking,
Hence be very careful
What you are saying.
Harmless they originally are;
The humming melody of sounds
Until each sound makes sense
And meanings drawn from them.
The power inherent in your words
Has the capacity to make or mar,
Depending on the usage of each
You can build or destroy someone.

Let your words not be poison
That kills another person,
Rather, let it be a healing balm
That breathes health to a dying soul.
Words are indeed powerful,
Be intentional to use them wisely.
For what you say out of your mouth
Cannot be retracted back into you.
You may only apologize for vile words,
But its damage is done already.
Hence, better to remain mute
Than speak out foolishly.
