My mother always told me

that words can be hurtful.

That is the

Cold

Hard

Truth.

Yet if used in the correct way

Words can be beautiful.

***

My teachers speak in voices

filled with monotone.

Voices, Voices; All around.

Some are loud; Some are quiet.

Some are high; Some are low.

Yet they all sound the same.

If they don't say anything worth saying

What's the use?

***

I need a story.

One with a princess,

A prince,

And a tall tower.

One with action,

Romance,

And plot twists on every page.

Words make a story.

Letters make words.

Every story ever is just

A combination of 26 letters.

***

People talk too much.

They say too much for their own good.

When people talk,

Not all of it is true.

If we were all just quiet,

for once,

Could we hear the world sing?

***

Words hurt; Words heal

Words are a curse; Words are a blessing

Words are confusing.

And so is the earth

So if we didn't use as many

Wouldn't the world be a better place?

***

Writing is different.

Writing is calm.

Writing is soothing.

Writing is a place where I belong.

Writing words is so much different than speaking.

When you speak,

You can lie,

What you say is out there,

You can't take anything back.

Once you say it, its done.

When you write,

Words flow out.

Kind words.

When you write,

You dream.

When you write,

You tell a story.

Words.

                       Words.

                                                   All around.

Without

                    Words

                                       I 

                                             Wonder 

                                                                 How

                                                                               The 

                                                                                           World

                                                                                                         Would

                                                                                                                          Sound.
