words

Words 

They hold power

Like a gun 

But it’s our voices that give them power

Words are an unloaded gun

And our voices are the bullets 

And our emotions are the hammer

Words only hold power when they’re spoken with emotion

The scariest part is everyone holds this power

To raise someone from hell 

Or to shoot them down to hell

When words are spoken without emotions they’re hollow

When you speak with emotion 

That’s the only time people listen

We cannot speak recklessly 

Because our emotions will seep through 

There’s no safety on this gun

So sooner or later 

We will accidentally shoot 

And hurt the people we love the most

And will lead to more emotion

Which will lead to more people being hurt

    Hardships

    It’s a path to salvation 

    And to demise 

    If you rise or fall

    Is up to you 

    Will you always be stuck in this swamp

  • Air conditioner

    A holy item in the summer

    Forgotten in the winter

    Able to save a house from the suns attacks

    An item that many wish they had

    And those who have them take it for granted
