Words


Sometimes we say things that we regret, And the cosequences of those words we'll never forget. Everything we do is not always right, As there are people always causing problems and wanna fight. Everyone's so eager whether physical or verbal to win, But the best way to do that is not let people under our skin. We try to do what it takes in orderto rise above, Although we occasionally fall below and hurt the ones we love. Emotions often time become rattled, When something that wasn't suppose to be told was tattled. We have to realize words can be as poisonous as lead, And that some things are better left unsaid.

My motto is keep it legit. I'm a quiet, passionate, deep thinking, laid back type of guy. If there's something worth fighting for never give up on it.
