What are words...

Words have the power to turn a life upside down, it is a double edged weapon that can be used both to sooth someone or to light them on fire. But if we stop for a moment trying to figure out what words really are, we’ll be actually lost in a never ending maze with twisted unexpted roots. Some of us are actually slaves of haunting words they hear from others and if they do not free themselves from the chains of those whispers, they shall never ever shine. Like never. Others on the other hand worship the words they hear from others as long as they only hear what they wanna hear. So basically words are somewhat the architects of one’s being. Words are hazardous if not controlled, obnoxious if not sculptured.

They tend to say that a wise man must turn the tongue seven times in the mouth before speaking considering the fact that words once released from our lips, can never be taken back so one must think deeply before letting out any of his words. The power that words have is unbelievable. So the wiser you are, the more beautiful your words become and nothing is more beautiful than sweet honest words.

You noticed I said honest while sweet words aren’t always honest. So you see I believe words are nothing if they are not honest. What are words if they’re not honest ? What are words if they can be altered to be more appealing even though not that true ? What are words if they are not kept ? What are words when we are living in a planet where everything is mapped out and every single person is not always who you think he/she is ? What are words unsubstuncial.

Words are just excuces and lies and disappointments and sorrow and grief and anger and joy. Borderline joy to be more explicite. I don’t think that we need words that much since they not that relevant. I don’t need words to make someone feel how much I hate or love or despise him/her. It can be cristal clear if they only read my facial outlines. Words are wind. Let me tell you why I believe that words are not that important. In some cases, words stay stuck in our mouths, between our lips and tongue ,we remain speechless, the words won’t come out no matter how much we try to put what we feel into words.
