Meaning

The meanings of words

can be easily underrated

like those of actions

which are often overstated.

The power of words

can offer healing

especially when offered

with true feeling.

When you take a moment

to think what to say

you may underestimate

the effect your words can convey.

When you take time out

to ask how they are

you may not realise it but

you might be healing a scar.
