On a very hot glass
a drop of water
is fatal to the glass;
it shatters it into
hundreds of pieces.
The heart could be like
the red hot glass.
It needs no big hammer
to break into pieces.
Something minor like
a few words could
destroy the heart.
Something so minor
like simple words
could have that
deadly impact
on our hearts.
It's hard to explain
and even harder
to understand why
some words
could be so deadly.
