[Po] -A Single Word-

[Silver Wingling]

-A Single Word-

A single word can slash the soul
A single word can cut so deep
And rip apart what once was whole
Till only tears bring only restless sleep

A single word can poison friends
A single word can stain the pure
As friendships come to a bitter end
And innocence succumbs to evil's bitter lure

Or a single word can mend a heart
Or dry a hundred tears
A single word can reconcile
Or wipe away the blood of many years

And so I ask you, tell me this
Do you seek to cause grief or bliss?
What truly lies within your heart?

What single word will you impart?

Beautiful, and very true. I also like the play with the coloring. It was a nice touch.

That was very true, and very eloquently put. well done.
