" Words "
Through the written word, people comprehend and thrive
The tales, mystery and suspense has kept us alive
All through life since learning became possible, we've read
and traveled to and beyond through the words others have said
It opened doors within us that never will be closed
and brightened eyes visually by what it purposed
Then through the miracle of computers AOL has been born
And now words can be seen along with e-mail and porn
Even new friends can be made all across our wide world
and attachments can grow close from the words that are hurled
I know this is true for many times it's happened to me
For through the eyes of another my heart has been opened to see
That love doesn't always need personal contact to grow and be real
It can thrive merely through our words and the emotions we feel
Many hearts have been opened and caressed from words that have been written
And some have led to a marriage proposal by the lovebug that has bitten
So be careful my friends when we sign-on and enter to "chat"
We don't ever have to say sorry "I didn't mean to say that"
Remember even behind our computer screens we still feel hurt and pain
And words are like swords when ripped through hearts they have slain
The suffering occurs when you lie and you cheat
From being who you are not to the people that you meet
America On-Line is a wonderful concept used properly, right from the start
And not misused or abused to destroy someone else's heart
