Words…
They are a weapon. A cure. Poison. Aid. Magic wand. A tool of creation and destruction. They hurt. They caress. Make you feel whole, or make you feel empty.
Some of the most hurtful are those never spoken – wanted, anticipated, wished for, but never given. The absence itself is what hurts.
Actions are the loudest words. And actions that never take place are as words that are not spoken, when they should be. Swords of ignorance. Assassins that leave a trail of heartbreaks behind.
