"Words Do Hurt "
Sometimes they say that sticks and stones
Can cause your bones to break
But words unkindly said to you
Should not a difference make
But thoughtless words decry the spirit
And diminish self-esteem
Disparaging comments often spoken
Simply to demean
It isn't just the things that's said
Or the choice of words that's used
But how they're spoken to another
That makes them feel abused
Once verbalized you can't take back
Those statements made so wrongly
And to those for whom these words were meant
They feel the pain so strongly
It's always such a senseless act
For a fool to speak a word
Because he knows not what he says
He's much better seen than heard
When words are used to hurt another
They're better off not said
So if you can't say something nice
Say none of them instead
