Mouth Zipped

in #poetry7 years ago

People talk.
Well obviously, they have their mouths to do so.
But when do we talk, and when do we not?
When do we shrug it off and just shut up?

People say, we're entitled to our own opinions.
So I guess, being quite can also be an option?
Then again, every person has his own dealings.
But can we set that aside for other's feelings?

We are all curious.
But somehow, we've become more suspicious.
We speculate, we presume.
We never know when our words have gone far long.

Our words are the sharpest weapon that's ever created.
It can't just be forgotten; can always be remembered.
Unless it's our business, then we care.
But for some reason that it's not? Then let's learn to shut up.

hi everyone.. I don't always post but there's this thing in my head and i wanted to say it out. I kind of want to make it a poem, sound like one, and that's how it went.😁. feel free to drop your comments if you want.
