When words are soft

Water is soft

Yet

It can mmake grooves 

Upon the Earth 

Those grooves  

Become mighty rivers 

 

Water is soft

Yet

It can tear down moutains

Tear down trees

Tear down homes

 

Water is soft 

Yet 

It can wash away cars

Cause sinkholes

To engulf the land around

 

When words are soft 

They can

Break the hardest of hearts 

Turn enemies into friends 

Stop the wrath 

Stop the rage 

 

When words are soft 

They can 

Heal the broken heart

Calm the hurtling 

Tear down emotional walls
