Words

A Poem by Boldpen
"

Words had always been defined as a very powerful weapon and gift. They are strongest human power and has capability to change world.

"

Believe me friends,
I'm not talking absurd
There is a great power
in a single word

Words can build
Words can break
Words can support
Words can shake

Words encourage
Words bring down
Words can reflect
smile and frown

One smart word,
can save thousand lives
One stupid word,
raise cannons and knives
One word of wisdom,
guide dark mind
One word of revolution,
can change mankind

There's no wound
kind words can't heal
Words create scars
that are hard to deal

Words can destroy
Words can mend
Words are on what
we writers depend

You can't take back
what you speak.
Words push you down
they take you to peak

So, this tongue of ours
is important to tame
Even after our end
these words remain.

Your poem shows so strongly how the words can impact our lives. I think so much about what I say it. And I have improved this through the years. There was a time that I thought... "I want to say what I want" and many times I wished I had my mouth shouted. If I can say something that is going to help someone, or make someone happy, I say it. I try to use my honesty, but in a very mature way.
Your poem is mature, real, and true.

Wise words here. Yes, words can be so powerful, and dangerous, if used rashly or unwisely. A thought-provoking write, and a good one. Well done.

You speak the truth in words indescribable. :) Indeed, very well written, and your words really had me thinking about the impact a simple statement can make. Well done!

Like it? I love it!

You're right! You're absolutely right! Words are an amazing source of power for the human race. Words have started and ended wars, words have started and ended marriages, words have started and ended one's career (or life, for that matter), and words have cursed and blessed the pages of a book. Words are powerful, and can be both a positive and negative resource. Kinda like a gun. The words themselves are harmless, but the person speaking or using the words can be the problem.

These words have touched my heart.
And excellent write once again.

I don't like it. I love it! This is so true, words are very powerful, and enigmatic. It can make you see things from a different perspective, it can give detail to every little thing. It can break or make you. It can also kill or uplift you. I loved this very much.

I really enjoyed the natural progression and flow of your poem. The concept you expressed here is one that many take for granted and you have expressed it so eloquently and powerfully. You have put into perspective the power of even one single word as well as the immortality of those same words. This is a great write. I am extremely impressed by the content especially by the maturity in it. This is the first piece of your work I have read and in it you have shown that you posses a level of maturity not common for a young woman your age. You have a great command of this free verse and a bright future, although there is not a thing I would change about this poem here!

Great write and a great read!
