[bodytext] => I'm moving and and I'm working I'm working and I'm moving momma always said If your gonna say something you better feel it And if your feel something you better be willing to say So say what you feel and feel what you say Because words today are like nuclear bombs In the wrong arms They destroy cities towns and farms I heard about a young girl on myspace who took her own life Cause words cut deeper then any kind of knife Now may she rest in peace And her parents cant rest in peace & You shouldn't be able to rest in peace after reading this piece because death isn't just occurring in the middle east Its our children that are falling by the way side Being dumped in the bay side And I cant just turn a blind eye When I have the ability to scribe And you have the ability to listen or the ability to read so you should also have the ability need to change the situation that bleeds out the youth there is a battle of good and evil And evil and good so which side of the line do you stand On which side of the line do you demand That things don't stay the same not placing blame but like paying ten dollars for seven dollars things your making change And its starts with those who have the frame of mind to change the mind of lost minded individuals we need to find it return it to them then perhaps they wont be blinded But who am I to say that were gonna change the way that people view the world today they could just stay and remain the same way that they are today But I refuse to say that I wasn't a part of the movement that walked this way that I wasn't part of the scribes that talk this way So when I get to Jesus I'll say I did my part I touched some hearts I helped rebuild some souls And I assisted in making them whole But only through the gifts that granted to me Did I describe the power that words could really be so when sticks and stone end up breaking your bones just remember my tone And go pick up the phone Cause your never really alone Just one word away or two phases to say Three little syllables Like I love you You love me Words and phases Can break down races And barrier lines that are drawn we can erase this eradicate racist rapist take faces for face value and value the cases that we are faced with so to warrior word-smiths linguist hand sign therapist poetic and novelist these words are just for you don't use your words just you but to get through the lives of others and thats the way its got to be Cause with great power comes great responsibility [comments] => 3 [counter] => 214 [topic] => 25 [informant] => allidoiswrite82 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => MiscPoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
