Power


What is power?

Is it a sign of control,

how about respect,

Maybe it is strength or wisdom,

Power can be used differently in so many ways,

So many different perspectives,

can all be truth or lies,

words can be as powerful as nuclear war heads,

lies can be as hurtful as the truth,

People are the saviors and the exucutioners of life

Power is everywhere and everything,

it is within everyone of us,

we choose how we use our powers and display them to anyone,

We create these words along with truth and lies

We are power and power is within all of us
