Twinge

Words are lovely

but can sometimes be dull

depending on your mood.

You can make someone fall in love,

or break an innocent heart,

or have someone jump with glee,

or maybe have a poor soul wallow in despair.

Words can sometimes sting

just as much as it can comfort.

So next time you write something down,

think twice.

You may not be saying something nice.

Found this as I was rummaging through old tattered notebooks. Enjoy.
