Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have deliciously expressed the happiness of a newborn’s mother


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have completely answered the curiosity of a child


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have explained the cosmos of a feeling called ‘love’


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have taught the one using it of when to not use them


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have helped the speaker be understood at their level than being perceived by the listener at theirs


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have turned the violent enemy to a dear friend


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have changed the mind of the people with power to bring peace in the world


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have stopped the man who jumped from a cliff to end his life


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have saved the dying


Yes the words would have mattered

But only, if they could have fully consoled the family of the departed


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have saved the weddings


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if it would have convinced and taught patience to an innocent victim sentenced for a lifetime


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they could have defined the meaning of life


Yes words would have mattered

But only, if they have managed to shatter the ego to make one accept the mistake


P.s:


Sometimes words are not enough

Yes the words are words and will always be words

Sometimes they are nothing more than gross machinery, primitive and ambiguous

May be a meaningful silence may work better than meaningless word
