Words can come out easily,

They can be cruel or can be kind.

They can fill pages of a story,

Or a poem filled with rhyme.

 

When thoughts are racing through our heads.

Words can come out easily.

Filters fall away.

Words come out that we regret each day.

 

Words can freeze upon the tongue,

We can find what needs to be said,

Words can come out easily,

What will we choose to say.
