you may think you know, <br />all about those people, <br />but what you say, <br />can be lethal. <br /> <br />no one is perfect, <br />and we're not all the same, <br />it's funny for you, <br />but for them it's not a game. <br /> <br />they don't do it, <br />just to be cool, <br />they do it because, <br />of those kids at school. <br /> <br />students, teachers, <br />family and friends. <br />do they cause pain? <br />well that all depends. <br /> <br />what you say, <br />can affect someone, <br />words are painful, <br />like a knife or a gun. <br /> <br />you may never think, <br />what you've said is bad, <br />but one day maybe, <br />someone gets sad. <br /> <br />so sad, <br />there's no turning back, <br />those words you said, <br />had an impact. <br /> <br />a mother, father, <br />daughter or son, <br />has ended their life, <br />and now they're gone. <br /> <br />all because, <br />of what you said, <br />this one person, <br />is gone and dead. <br /> <br />not just you, <br />but everyone, <br />has said something mean, <br />or just plain dumb. <br /> <br />here's your warning, <br />listen real close, <br />watch your words, <br />before they go. <br /> <br />think before you speak, <br />when that kid walks by, <br />you never know, <br />you could save his life. <br /> <br />compliments are better, <br />for you to say, <br />than to ruin, <br />someone elses day. <br /> <br />so would you rather, <br />be the cause of strife? <br />or end up saving, <br />a dead man's life? <br /> <br />it's your choice, <br />it's up to you, <br />just remember, <br />words are lethal too.<br /><br />sarah baron<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lethal/
