Words

The power of words
Is like to live or die
Such a important decision
Watch how you put them

Saying the wrong thing
Is worse than a wrong turn
One miss placed word
And you can crash and burn

I can make an impact
On your life
Twist it upside down
Or turn it around

Think before you speak
You don't want to be a reason
Added to problems
That already have me bleeding

Can you be so ignorant
You don't see
That your words
Deeply affected me

I look at you in shock
Not able to answer
Your so insensitive
Something's got to give
