If I were a word


If I were a word

 

If I were a word I would be complicated and confusing

 

When read I would be easily misunderstood or mispronounced

 

Often times people would think they know how to define me but in reality they would have no idea

 

I would look long and intimidating causing people to skip over me or misjudge me

 

If people would take the time to break me down and find my origin they would realize I am not hard to understand

 

Although sometimes I get lost in the sentence and my meaning becomes blurry; I will always revert back to my roots and stay true to my origins

 

All in all I may be intimidating and not pleasant to look at on first glance but take the time to understand my definition and you will have a better idea of what I mean

 

If I were just a word
