This is a poem inspired from the saying ‘A pen is mightier than the sword’. Hope you enjoy it!
My words are my weapons
I wield my words like a weapon because
Words tell me about the prejudice, the plight and a strike on peaceful nights.
/
I brandish my sentences like a dagger because
I learnt how to find a book in the library before I found out that bedtime demons were real.
/
I shoot using my pen instead of a gun because
After all is shot and done the pen will survive and rise to shape the world.
/
I wield my words like a weapon because
You can take away my weapons but you cannot touch my words.
