Prisoner of Words is a poem written by Alicia Keys that demonstrates the power that we underestimate, the power of words. Words are capable of encaging us in a prison we have self formed or rendering us free.
"It's like solitary confinement
Every time I stay quiet
I should start to speak
But I stop and stay silent
And now I've made
My own hard bed
Inside a prison of words unsaid"
This is just a small portion of the magnificent poem that has revealed the reality of power and mystery of life by Alicia Keys that I highly recommend for others to check out. It's a light read with heavy meaning.
