Poetry: The Power of Words

Today I’m changing it up. I’m stepping out of my comfort zone and sharing a different part of my writing. Poetry. I don’t really consider myself a poet. I’ve never studied it, aside from simply reading poetry of all types. I don’t really know what I’m doing with it, except that when the words come in that form, it’s is expressive and healing for me. 

We all use words, yet few of us understand the depth of their power. Words hurt or heal break or build tear or strengthen Words cause fear or trust doubt or confidence failure or success pain or beauty. Remember next time before words come out the power they possess and the power they give you. Your words could mean the difference between death and life.
