I write the words I can not say.
Words are powerful
And they are a weapon we all hold
Some take aim and fire the ones that will hurt the most
Some build up empires with the promises formed by cascading lies
And some destroy everything for not using them at all
I like to think I have a firm grasp on the form of war fare that is words
Yet I can only write them down
I will never be able to say exactly what you’d like to hear
There will hardly be times where I can tell you anything at all
But please
Just ask me to write
And then and only then
Will my thoughts never be questioned
Because as I sit with my words flowing out of my hands and onto paper
They form the defense I need
For you to believe everything I've never been able to say.
