Words are easy.
They are just the things you say. In a quick moment of passion. In a heated argument. Or in a second of thoughtlessness.
You can talk for hours and when you step out of a room, they may mean nothing.
I don’t believe in promises.
In those who build castles in the air. In dreams that need no foundation. In people who don’t think twice before they commit.
All it takes to ruin these, is just a whiff of air. A strong breeze.
What I can lean on is something I see. Something I can touch and know of permanence. Something I know is not a fable.
Its not like the world hasn’t seen miracles. People crossing oceans to keep their word. I like to believe that these things happen in real life, to real people.
But if you don’t have the courage to get out of your comfortable couch, in your sunny little town where your life is just perfect, don’t promise it.
Don’t even say the words.
Because my friend, words are wind. Nothing more, nothing less.
