Gossip Gossip Gossip Poem by salma. torrez

I have no respect for justice
I maim without killing
I break hearts and ruin lives.

I am cunning and malicious and gather strength with age
The more I am quoted the more I am believed.
I flourish at every level of society.
My victims are helpless.

They cannot protect themselves against me because I have no face
I am impossible to track
The harder you try, the more elusive i become
I am nobody’s friend.

Once I tarnish a reputation, it is never the same
I topple all and wreck marriages
I ruin careers and cause sleepless nights, heartaches
I spawn suspicion and generate grief.

I make innocent people cry in their pillows
Even my name hisses. I am called Gossip
I Gossip everywhere.

Before you repeat a story!
Ask yourself, is it true?
Is it fair?
Is it necessary?
If not! !
Please keep it to yourself! !

If you spend sometime praying instead of gossiping
You will be Spiritually ahead.
