Power of Words

Words can start wars or can request encores
Have you lying on floors or can make you a star
Compose lyrical bars of rap or stanzas of poetry
Gain you an influx of admirers or a few enemies

Used to motivate teams or to maliciously demean
Can paint vivid pictures of things you've never seen
Conveys fantasies and dreams of here and beyond
Create thesis' or masterpieces about lilly pads in a pond

They can strengthen bonds or tear them apart
The greatest ones spoken come straight from the heart
Once they depart loose lips they can easily sink ships
Destroying relationships of those who were once conjoined at the hip
