A whispered word A whispered word, careless said, swiftly as an arrow sped. Sharper than the sharpest steal, a wound thus caused may never heal. Build a wall around the soul, strong and tall to guard the whole. From taunts and barbs the wall may keep, inside a lonely soul will sleep. With love and laughter your heart defend, you'll be the stronger one, my friend. Marvin Giles
