Words are the virus exposed during youth

Words are amazingly powerful 

they contain power most dont understand and others haven't mastered

Words, they are hurtful

sticks and stones are no match for Words

Words laugh at broken bones and silly bruises 

Words skip the flesh 

they enter the ears and invade the brain

Words conquer the mind 

they destroy the foundation

they manipulate thought 

they hide in plain sight 

Words force the doubt and insecurity 

that make you question sanity

they are tricky

Words are freeing, but also enslaving
