Would that in our daily speech
we had a button to delete
the words we've spewed in anger or
those thoughts which from emotions soar
like missiles launched without a thought
from lips which should be locked up taut!
But no, we all are guilty of
harsh words which bite and cut as love
feels damaged! So, we'd best forget
when others should be blamed.

Since as of yet
real life ain't like the internet.
There's no delete
some words aren't sweet
and some can cause a flame!

If you can't forget
Sometimes it's best
if you forgive them just the same.

How true, Miss Peri. Some nice lines in this.
