Words are magic.
Words are powerful.
They give life an interesting kick.
Or they can be bleak and dull.
All things, good, evil, the in-between.
Words make the unseen seen.
Worlds, pain, thoughts, actions.
They are imaginations
Glistening with color
Or be fire which singes.
Create a whole new person
With different visions.
Be as aspect
That causes an effect.
Which could make a heart skip.
Have waterfalls flowing.
Physical pain are words - no matter the tip.
Words are weapons none of us mind throwing.
The one true thing that shape shifts.
Truly an invisible force.
Limits it might have
Can cause us a laugh.
All an escape to an invisible microphone.
An invisible play
To take us right home.
The narrator of everything we do.
Can make us who we become.
Words are power - carved into Stone.
Visibly spoken, when called they may come.
A valuable thing, connecting us all.
The limits lie in the Alone.
Doing so makes words unstoppable.
At first, it's all we are.
Yet blended with movement
You'll go far.
