The Power of Words


There is a certain amount of magic in every phrase you can write about reeking havoc Or enchant with a visual of the suns rays Writing is not just an escape It gives us hope that, yes, we can reshape Governments, hierarchies, mentalities, harsh treatment to others maybe even war fatalities because its more than just our mothers that find truth in the words of poets and writers because the characters and the people are always fighters Until my last fleeting breath I hope to use my words to defeat the cruelty of humanity because even in death they will forever stay like a heartbeat My words may seem minor now but the truth is just how much words have power Upton Sinclair and Hemingway topple any tower because they had something to say And I do too and that is what I want to show you I want to Change the world To put a smile on a strangers face Show opportunity unfurled To change the laws of time and space And so I share my true passion hoping for a positive reaction.

To me, this is the complete truth about writing and much each sentence utters matters in this world. Thanks for taking the time to read this.
