Poets & Poetry

Words, oh words!

Words, oh words!
What do I say?
By you, I get so carried away.

You are peace
You are war
You are love
You are pain
You are fear
And yet by you,
People conquer.

Some say
You are weak,
Yet you lead.
You are powerful
And can make eyes bleed.

You can win hearts
You can tear people apart
You can regret
You are pink and violet
You are serene
And yet violent.

You are everything in action
And yet nothing without a reaction
You are a perception, a view,
It is all on how a person uses you.
He can make you beautiful,
He can make you ugly,
He may give you kisses,
And yet deep scars, too.
