Words


From thoughts to words to words to paper.
Spiraling thoughts twisting about each other.
Born from emotions now and memories past,
The writing of words is the binding of thought,
With chains far stronger than of iron and steel.
Words are a magic all their own.

Calling upon the emotions that borne them.
Evoking emotion in reader and listener alike.
From satisfaction to rage to joy to sadness.
These ideas move like water from river to sea.
Fashion these word-bound thoughts with care.

Use caution when dealing with emotion and memory.
They bind others as easily as influence thought.
Misstated and ill-timed words can cut deep,
As easily as they inform, heal, and bring joy.
