I have spoken too many times in my life without thinking about the damage my words would do. And sadly it is a learned behavior because hurtful words still resonate in my soul.
Speaking without thinking
Thinking without speaking
Hurtful words spewed
Venomous syllables
Cutting to the bone
Driving through the soul
Never to be undone
Collateral damage
Regret and sorrow
I want to eat my words
I want them back
I want to repair hearts
I want my soul healed
My life on an unexpected path 
Nice poem! I used the same tweet 🙂
Though I didn’t do a poem. Poem is the higest most artistic and thus difficult form of writing. I write one poem a month and will not be taking writing 201 which is as I understand it a poetry course. A poem a day. Nope, that’s not for me. I do so enjoy love reading them though! Which is probably why I host a once monthly poetry linky party.
I digress… Liked the tweet and liked your poem 🙂
