Not much to say about this one except words can make or break us ..

Silence is Golden

Sometimes words are not enough
other times they say too much.

With words we praise or indeed
condemn to humiliate our fellow man.

Words can say 'I love you'
and 'I love too' right back.

Sometimes words can crack a joke.
Yes, words can make us laugh.

Words they do confuse at times,
well especially for me.

Did I say I wanted coffee,
I'm sure I said Tea?

Words can humbly apologise,
when we've told a little lie.
Words can be informative
of that we can't deny!

BUT Sometimes words should not be spoken
and thus you see 'Silence is Golden'
