Be careful with those particular words,
For oftentimes they close a door
That might otherwise have remained opened.
Don’t simply look,
Open your eyes and see.
Do the seats of the soul
Expose what lies beyond
The expression on the face
And in the body?
Sometimes, yes sometimes,
The exterior belies
The feelings inside.
Be careful with those particular words.
They create an expectation
And oftentimes stifle the willingness
To seek that which is needed
Be careful with those particular words,
“You are so strong!”
Be careful.
~Roxanne Watson
