Question: What are words to you!?

Words To Me

Words can say
Words can sway
Words can easily land astray

Words we write
Words we sight
Words we throw can start a fight

Words you choose
Words you use
Words you see can blur your views

Words I find
Words I mind
Words are just the only thing I have left, to allow me a release from the constant internal struggle, that permeates my life, as these forces in me, drive me to a state of constant and repetitive analysis, of every minuscule detail of every notion, thought or curiosity that my left temporal lobe locks on to, whether or not, it is of my design!.

Other than that, they are just words!.

Great little poem but I suggest you clean that diatribe at the end up a little!.!.!. it is too wordy/confusing and doesn't present a clear image

Why not try something shorter, on the order of:

Words are the keys that release me from the cerebral struggle to unendingly review every minute detail my left lobe locks onto,
other than that they are only words!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

HP I thought this was so bluddy laugh out loud clever matey because of the second last stanza, intended to be recited very quickly and the last line to be said very deadpan!.

Your words are uplifting HP!. Words in general, communicate as stand alone or in concert with other words!. They are my friends!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Why do you think I write so much!

emotions turning into thoughts
thoughts that flow into words formed by
pressing the keys on a keyboard,
pressing each one at a time
that change your life!.

The concept is deliciously
overwhelming to me!.

at first i thought what a great poem except that wordy useless tangent he goes off on at the end!. and then I'm like oh wait!. thats the entire point!. absolutely brilliant how you used your poem to prove the theme of your poem!. This poem reminds me of one i wrote a few months ago coincidentally also about words!. heres the poem i wrote about words:

Words

Words recycled reused and destroyed,
Words that mean nothing like happy and joy,

Words that are borrowed for this and that,
Their meanings deflated and they become flat,

Words that are vulgar we fire around,
When used harshly bring even the strongest man down,

Words that tell stories we'd rather forget,
Words we purge when we should digress,

Words that spark riots,
Words that spark wars,

Words written in blood,
Words misheard,

Words with histories predating our own,
Their meanings evolving not written in stone,

Too hot to swallow to cold to forget,
Words burning brighter than the fuel of a jet,

But words are just letters in alphabet soup,
mere random letters clustered up in a group

Trevor S!.
