Love Poem: Scarring Words

Scarring Words

Words
The things they do
The fights they cause 
The hate they create
And the love they spread
For good or bad
For right or wrong 
For the right and the good
Is where words belong

Some words may cut like a knife
And leave a bleeding wound 
That will forever be scarred
Other words may heal
Build another up 
And change the way you feel

The wrong words you say
Is a risk you take
To leave a scar
The words you let slip
Should always be kind 
And should always be defined
As loving, caring, and good 

Never leave a scar from the words you say
Because the scar you’ve caused
Will ALWAYS come back to cut you
