What is a Word? (poetry)

A word is letters
and sounds.
Thought given form.
Words that mean love for me
can mean hatred for you.
A word can soothe a soul
or pierce a heart.
Put a dream into words
and hope it comes true.
Put a curse into words
and wish you could rewind.
A word cannot take life,
but to words you can give life.
Words are alive.
And with them,
so am I.
