Words That Spill Out - Poem

When words spill out in anger and rage

And later wish those words were never staged

Because cruel words can cause lives to be broken

Those piercing words which should have never been spoken

We know words cannot be taken back

Pain pierces deep in a soul and life turns dark

Mean words get entrapped in the soul like an iron cage

Words spoken in unthinking blinding fury and rage

But wait! There is still hope in that murky mess

There is still a way for this mess to address

We can ask God to take out that scorpion sting
 He will take wounding words far away and fling

He turns those words in the soul turn to ashes

And stops the soul getting those words' lashes

Through prayer
Those words shrivel into nothingness

Removing its poisonous crippling effect

Its ashes released scatted to the wilds winds

Then the stabs of hurtful words fade and heal

This happens when we get down and kneel

All is possible
Because we have a God of Redemption

A God who forgives, heals and strengthens

Who when we ask Him, can clean up that mess

And into our ruins and mess reaches down to bless

He is a God who reforms and transforms
He can make things new!
