My Heart and Words...

 My Heart and Words

My heart is real.

It is not made of wood, paper, or stone.

Words cannot break a wooden heart.

Words bounce off the heart of stone.

Words are written on the heart of paper.

Words can pierce the heart of flesh, which cause it to tremble.

Words spoken in haste are the ones which linger long after the resolution.

Words can make or break the spirit of the person for whom they are directed.

Be careful with words, for in them is life and death.
