Spoken Words Poem by Medha Upreti

speak first
speak last
speak it soft
speak it loud
speak it quick
speak it gentle
speak it harsh
speak to break
speak to build
the spoken word

speak in one breath
speak with pause
speak wisely
speak bluntly
speak carefully
speak carelessly
speak honestly
speak lies
speak timely
speak untimely
speak powerfully
speak lovingly
the spoken words
go round and round
like in circles
they come back
the spoken words
