Words are empty promises
Talk is cheap
Meaning can be easily said than done

c.m.l.
Robin MacCuish Oct 2016
Silence eats them like a termite to wood
scares them into omission
so they scream against the oceans
a battle against the trees drifting to the soft breeze
putting the colored fine tip marker of the board of white noise
drawing words of a termite
meanings corroded
by the repeated times
you came talking to me in the dead of night
Noelle Marie Dec 2014
The power of words
None know the extent
Can make our hearts fly free
Knowing we are not alone in our stasis, our feeling
Can make our hearts fly free hearing 'I love you', 'I am proud'
Can cause our hearts to seize in our chests, such pain, such happiness
But from words
Have we forgotten that talk means nothing
Unless action follows, gives evidence of feeling, of statement
If actions were valued as such
Imagine the world?
Poverty, hunger, may be lessened
We may know difference between good, bad, right, wrong
Being valued, or used
The world might be changed absolutely
The power of actions
Matters
