Words

Words - so essential for expression.
        If not spoken carefully, can create wrong impression.
Words - what a lasting effect it leaves,
        the more you try to forget, more it creeps.
               
Words - means to express your love to someone,
        can take years to apologize, if need to be undone.
words - so easy to use while making promises,
        yet so difficult to follow as the time passes.        

words - we know only couple of them when we were infants,
 yet those magical words meant a lot for our parents.
 we keep adding more words to our dictionary as we grow,
 and sometimes we speak without thinking, as we get carried away with the flow.

 think twice before you speak, our parents/teachers teach us.
 and here we start restricting our words, so as not to hurt others.
 but how much should we restrict, sometimes I wonder.
 what about my freedom of speech, come on I always don't make a blunder.

 Sometimes we do get frustrated with the way things go,
 and we do utter harsh words to satisfy our ego.
 We do feel good, as we empty our mind.
 'It's my LIFE', the only suitable phrase we find.

 After calming down, as we sit in isolation.
 The entire episode gets recapped in our imagination.
 It's that moment, we start feeling guilty of words we utter,
 I shouldn't have said that, and things could've been better.

 But the moment we realize effect of our words,
 the other person is already in a state of distress.
 You don't feel so close to the same person, as you used to feel earlier,
 And you want to apologize to experience same warmth and make things merrier.

 Things do get better with time,
 as we keep taking efforts for the relation so prime.
 Next time, I'll control my words, we promise each other,
 as we can't imagine same scene straining our relation any further.

 Words can indeed ruin your life, if not spoken with care.
 Hence, it's worth thinking twice, we should always be aware.
