Just a few words can make someone's day
Or completely break them down.
Just a few words can start a relationship
Or end one.
Just a few words can make a peasant a king.
Or bring the king right down to a peasant.
Just a few words can make a girl feel special
Or make that girl insecure.
Just a few words can make a guy the man of the house
Or make him hit rock bottom.
Just a few words can do so much.
So use your words wisely.

Words are so strong and sometimes we don't realise it and use them without thinkijg! I haven't seen poem written about this in a long time and it is really nice to see someone has written this kind of text as an advice to think about what seems like 'just a few words'. :)
