Words

When I hear lyrics
To a powerful song
It moves me
Loses me
Carries me along
When I read a book
Chick lit, truth or wit
It cheers me
Endears me
Entertains where I sit
When I watch a play
I’m drawn in by the script
I hang on each
Line
So there’s nothing I miss
So don’t say sticks and stones
Are the only things that hurt
Cause what will find a foothold
Deep inside someone
Are words
They can break a person
With no mark
And with no trace
They can change a future
They go with you
Every place
