Actions speak louder than words


Action is a form of expression

reveal what type of person we are

each individual has a certain action 

with our actions we intend to be careful

careful so no one can get a wrong idea about that individual

after all actions speak louder than words

 

People's actions presents what kind of person they are

through the movement of their body

to the movement of their eyes

we can predict what they are doing

yet we can never understand what they are trying to do

after all actions speak louder than words

 

Actions are wonderful to be expressed

yet to others, seem to be inappropriate

we know each of us aren't perfect 

we try our best to control our actions

yet it isn't good enough 

after all actions speak louder than words

 

Will there ever be a day where we can express?

Express through our actions without being judge

without feeling we need to keep hiding our actions

being able to do what we need to do to be free

if we do, then our actions reveal something else to others

others that don't understand what we are trying to get rid of

after all actions speak louder than words
