So often we forget the importance of words,
We forget that our words can break someone’s heart.
Sometimes our words will come back to haunt us,
When we speak without thinking,
And, sadly, those words can never be taken back.
Words can make someone feel so good,
When we tell them how wonderful they are,
When we say the words “I love you”,
But only if we are truly sincere.
We should remember that words spoken
Can make the difference to someone’s life,
They can make someone realize when a mistake was made.
Words can give someone the strength to change their lives
And what a joy it is to know that our words have done some good!
