Words support
and words can hit
Words resemble walking sticks
Words surrender
Words betray
Words give hope and love away
Words compel
and words deceive
Your words comfort and yet you leave
Words give all
and words still lack
Bitter words behind your back
Words confirm
and yet deny
Slay your soul with vicious knives
Words to cure
Words to lure
Words through clenched teeth – nothing new
Words of love
and words of hate
Words have put you in the grave
Challenge-words
Wrath-rotten voice
Empty word make empty noise
Words of sorrow
and frustration
due to words alienation
Words restrict
and words retrieve
Words of wisdom, words naive
Words create
and words destroy
Mighty words in mighty voice
Words can judge
and words forgive.
Word of God, do you believe?
Can I be what
I want to be?
Still man of words but man of deeds.
You wait and see,
Just wait and see.
I’ll pray for you , you pray for me.
