The Words You Speak
May 8, 2017
Deep underground
A deafining sound
Labrynth of power
Forever silent
Something of a coward
When the time comes
It will collaspe your lungs
Bubbling under the surface
Waiting to burst
To rear it's ugly face
Choises the wrong side
Everyone must hide
Murky, darkness
Explodes into the light of day
Seems so heartless

This poem is inspired by the frase 'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words with never hurt me'. This imagery hopes to show how damaging words can really be.
