Miscommunication

Miscommunication

They say actions speak volumes

But words hurt too

Sharp as a knife

Those words cut thru

Rather its all fun and games or the honest truth

Somebody lied when they said words can never hurt you

Those lips should only uplift

Your words could be a gift

But you use them to inflict pain

And enforce for your gain

Heavy is the crown

That I understand

But throwing around insults just shows your hand

Communication is key

Speak from the heart

Mind your tongue that's where to start

I understand all bets are off when love & anger mix with attraction

But watch your words

They become actions....
