I have no respect for justice <br />I maim without killing <br />I break hearts and ruin lives. <br /> <br />I am cunning and malicious and gather strength with age <br />The more I am quoted the more I am believed. <br />I flourish at every level of society. <br />My victims are helpless. <br /> <br />They cannot protect themselves against me because I have no face <br /> I am impossible to track <br />The harder you try, the more elusive i become <br />I am nobody’s friend. <br /> <br />Once I tarnish a reputation, it is never the same <br />I topple all and wreck marriages <br />I ruin careers and cause sleepless nights, heartaches <br />I spawn suspicion and generate grief. <br /> <br />I make innocent people cry in their pillows <br />Even my name hisses. I am called Gossip <br />I Gossip everywhere. <br /> <br />Before you repeat a story! <br />Ask yourself, is it true? <br />Is it fair? <br />Is it necessary? <br />If not! ! <br />Please keep it to yourself! ! <br /> <br />If you spend sometime praying instead of gossiping <br />You will be Spiritually ahead.<br /><br />salma. torrez<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/gossip-gossip-gossip/
