Words may not <br />Tear flesh, break bones <br />The way sticks do <br /> <br />They sneak under <br />The defenses <br />Leaving you bleeding <br />From the heart. <br /> <br />Words may not <br />Pull the trigger alone <br />But can be they catalyst <br />To the one holding the gun. <br /> <br />Words may not <br />Stab you with steel <br />But prick even harder <br />Depending on who utters what... <br /> <br />Words may not <br />Be of a physical essence <br />But still the fact remains <br />Words may be deadly <br />When used to harm.<br /><br />Jody Renee Pantiga<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/words-108/
