The Power of Words. {a poem}

What happens to your words when you feel invisible?

When you’re told that your feelings are wrong

That you’re making it up

When the actions of those you’ve let in don’t match their words

Perhaps they collect in your heart and stay there

Hence the term “heavy heart”

The body knows what the mind can’t accept

The words are inside

You feel the love around you, but you can’t speak

You learned how powerful words can be

How they can hurt

So you choose your words carefully

So carefully that you’re silent

Your heart knows

It holds the key to releasing your words

Your body breathes

It breathes in the truth

It breathes out the lies

The words spill out beautifully

And your heart can be light again.
