how much impact words have on us...

It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance.
It's the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance.
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give,
And the soul afraid of dyin`
that never learns to live.

This is a part of a song my aunt sang at the funeral of my grandmother 4 years ago. The song is called: " The Rose". I've never had such a hard time in my life trying to keep my emotions within myself, because the lyrics are so emotional, especially when my aunt sang them. I just wanted to share with you that individual words don't really mean a lot by themselves. But when you combine them into sentences, they create an atmosphere. Which describes the writer's mood at the time he/ she's writing the song, poem, book,etc....
