One word


That's so gay they say, they don't realize the power of a word, the hurt others may feel when it's heard. The pain, the rush of fear, the power of one word they hear. So often used, so often abused, the pain is so real and mean, yet so carelessly and commonly used. Some don't understand the impact of one word, the realization of how strong yet cowardly one word is. One word can change your whole mood, from cheerful to fearful, yes that is the power of one word.
