WordsWords mean to care, but can be so very mean Words
stick together like protons and neutrons
Erratically they spiral to form mutual
bonds
Niggardly mindless of the effects of chaos
Meaningless and empty,
woefully, often facetious Words mean to care, but can be
so very mean Words may reach the speed of light
But blindly
fumble in the darkness of night
Stumbling, grumbling, to trembling with fear
Evoking
tears, diffusing noise, to a sensitive ear Words mean to
care, but can be so very mean Words like a snake can spit
deadly poison
The victim suffocates without rhyme or reason
A tragedy laden
with black holes of assumptions
Saved only by the glow of genteel persuasions Behold,
gentle tongues of language dimensions
Exalt, share soft harmonies of empathetic
expressions
Words do care and mean this much!
Similarity,
