Words are sharper than swords.

Words are in fact sharper than swords,
                                    As they cut apart souls, jeopardize relations,
                                           Turn friendship in to even hostility
                                Unmindful, unnecessary and careless use of words,

                                      Makes irreparable damage, incurable injury,
                          Even though time, negotiations, compromises heal the wound,
                                    Persons, their relations come back to normalcy,
                            Scratches on hearts and minds given by words remain indelible.
                                            When you differ or disagree to someone,

                           Or are hurt by his or her discourteous conduct or illicit act,
                       And feel the necessity of some words to express your emotions,
                       Let the feelings in the shape of words generated in your heart,
                        Be purified by the scanner of your wisdom and conscience,
                              Then humbly come out to convey your feelings..
                                    Better words  should replace bitter ones,
                      Mild words should take the place of harsh, stinging words.
                                               When the bullet is in your gun,

                                 And your fingertips are not yet activated,
                                   Mind and conscience need to intercept,
                           Analyze the probable after-effects of an exchange,
                                 Hold it to give yourself a second thought,
                         Whether to fire from the gun of your tongue or not
                Because it would surely hit the destination and do the damage,
                                An effort to repair the damage latter on,
                Would only minimize the damage but will not totally nullify it.
                          In a situation of tussle, conflict, hot argument
                         One can take an excuse and leave the place,
               Or pause and smile to give a sweet break to offensive dual,
               Given the facts that arguments can neither be won nor be lost,
             They can only be averted for the sake of friendships and relationships.
                            Words are precious, more than your bank account,

                      Spend them calculatedly, cautiously and carefully,
                    According to Pradipta, if necessary be miser of words.
