“Bullets: There is nothing more harmful than words that cause an internal bleed, So be gentle with hearts, Be honest with intentions, But also be kind with your words, It's tempting to speak in bullets, To get it all out, But it takes true strength to step back, Consider deeply what you want to say And be guided by love to express yourself Without damaging a heart In a cruel, callous way”
