The Meaning of Word

Often heard
Love begins with one word,
Hurt begins with the same word,
One could lost in one word,
Yet do I truly know
The meaning of word?

Often heard
Writings reflect the heart,
Speeches could reveal one's flaws
Or they could reveal one's wisdom,
Yet do I truly know
The meaning of word?

How many times
I have uttered words
Carelessly, hurting myself?
How many times
I have uttered too many words
That might have hurt my closest bond?

And how quick are my judgements?
How quick are my comments?
How careless do I speak?
Haven't being open made me a fool?

Yes, I am a fool,
Cause I never think before I speak.

OhEliza~
This is very good !
A serious write ... and a right write~

I have a policy of doing an automatic 10 count before rendering a response from these lips~
Sometimes it takes a 30 count ... but the method works for me.

Goodness ... sometimes I think I pop off faster with my fingers on the keys than with my mouth flapping~

Thank goodness for the Drafts Folder on my email program ... it stays full ... until I go back and re-read then either see that it says what I REALLY wanted to say .... or I can hit the DELETE button !
