Written words
are difficult to read
sometimes
You'll understand
their meaning
but you never
hear the tone
in wich they
were ment to
be said
Kindly spoken
words could turn
to unfriendly ones
if they are written
down and be read
the wrong way.

As for poetry
written words
are always
a glimpse
of a moments
emotion
your emotion
no one elses
And we
the audience
will read them
in our different
states of mind.

Written words
are difficult to read
sometimes
Because not always
are we capable to
hear the voice
behind

Thank you all for your kind words.
Speaking a foreign language is not so difficult, but writing poetry and expressing your feelings in it sure is, but I keep trying. Besides that I'm happy to be able to read all of your lovely poetry.
Thanks again.
