Can Lead to a Friend
I had been quick to think,
and from that turned a disaster.
Arranging things around quickly,
always going so quickly,
messing it up even more.
I was angry and torn.
A word said wrong,
saying exactly what I thought,
I knew then it can sometimes hurt others,
and from that
I burned inside.
My own mind-
embarrassed.
My own words sting my tongue,
I dropped my head in shame and preceded to back up,
dropping it and backing up,
seems that's all I ever do.
Realizing,
I really need to think.
Patience didn't occur to me,
so I looked all around
and thought hard.
I quickly turned around,
and walked away from my own thoughts -
I couldn't think about it any more.
I knew now something had to be done.
The sun rose,
and I knew what to do.
I walked up and said sorry to you.
You forgave me,
and we became friends.
And I now thinking-
ever so slightly
before the next word was shed.
