Words have power.
More power than one can imagine.
Words are more than bits of sound,
Or just letters strung together.
More power than one can imagine.
Words are more than bits of sound,
Or just letters strung together.
Words can be used as weapons,
Causing us to destroy our souls.
Words can act as a repellent,
Chasing away negative thoughts.
Words can be encouraging,
Telling us the truth of our self-worth.
Words can be our friends,
Giving us permission to love ourselves.
Choose carefully.
Be your own friend.
Treat yourself with kind words.
Then watch your soul grow.
Choose carefully.
Words can be encouraging.
Words can be used as weapons.
Words have power.
