Words Poem by Esther Hadassah Sendeza

I now understand,
The power of spoken words.
For as time goes by,
Words lose their meaning.

You see, words can be said
And promises can be made,
Forever and a lifetime,
are just a chain of words.

But, words are just words,
Words are nothing,
And at times often spoken,
By an idiot or a fool.

Words have no meaning,
Like the descent of the summer rain.
Words have no value,
Like a drunk in the midst of day.

Only with action, then throw me your words.
