Words
Can be as sharp
As a knife
And make you
Feel worthless
Which breaks you down
But when the tables turn
Words
Can be powerful
To build
A person back up
From the lowest
Of the low.

The pen be sharper than the sword…but none be so deadly as a loose tongue.

This is so true. One can hurt another so much with words, and yet I have found words, in the form of poetry, helping me heal from those experiences. Great brevity!

Words can build up – which is why I believe it a good thing to practice empathy. You can’t be a master carpenter overnight!
