Power in Words

Action supposedly speaks louder than words

But what do we speak?

Words

 

In this great world where we children are better to be seen and not heard

What more could we want to speak other than

Words?

 

The meaning they hold, the emotion, the chaos

Money isn't what makes the world go 'round

It's words.

 

We have all this technology to help us connect and communicate

You don't communicate with silence and blank stares

but with words

 

I love

you

I hate

you

You mean everything

to me

I feel like

nothing.

Will you be

mine?

 

Words get across the greatest things we could ever say

It's a lost art that holds more power than most images

Because though a picture speaks a thousand words

You can paint a picture in even less

Words.
