Words are still Words
Words are still Words,
whether you say I’m Happy To Be Here, or
reassure a crying friend with It’s Okay. When
the retail worker tells you to Have A Nice Day,
or a teacher saying Great Job after handing back
your fully correct test.
Words are still Words,
when your brother calls you a whore, or
you’re coldly told by an adult that You’re A
Disappointment. When your friend refers to
you as Fat, or you look in the mirror, seeing
your Gross, Ugly reflection.
Words are still Words,
no matter if they are
Band-Aids or Bullets.
