Strength in Experience


Where is the strength behind our power in words Ancestors and philosophers alike have provoked speech Where is this audience that we can be heard The strength in our words is not the words themselves The experiences that separate people is the strength behind words Why read the oldest books on the shelves Where our own language can seem so foreign Yet we understand a message none the less It is like when warriors sounded the horn Words are not just for feelings to address Strength is the experience It is the words that paint strengths appearance.
