I hate the way i make you hurt

I hate it when we argue,
I hate it when we fight,
Especially in most arguments,
It's you that is mostly right.
I hate my first worried thought,
I have rumble through my head,
I hate the fact they come out wrong,
My emotions and feelings,
Right down to the way they are said.
I hate the way my mind works,
Not thinking before my words I spread.
They come out of my mouth like wild fire,
I don't think,
I just blurt,
I just wish I could douse the flames with water,
Before they come out and it's you in the firing line,
When it's you whom I least want burnt.
So for that I'm eternally sorry ,
And for all my future faults and words I spurt,
You are truly the one thing,
In life,
That I'd never want to hurt!

Hey James, it’s always the one you love that garbled words through quick feeling attack. It is a fact of life I’m afraid. However I feel the apology within this write and I think you’re being a little hard on yourself ? keep writing!! Xxx ❤️❤️❤️

Although it happens to everyone, we must try to be careful what we say to a lover, a friend, or anyone we care about, when we're angry.

Sticks & stones can bust bared bones,
but hurtful words can sure disarm me.

I tend to try to walk away, count to ten, take deep, cleansing breaths and think before I speak when involved in an argument.
The words we form in our gut, vibrate our vocal chords, pass over our tongues and come helter, skelter, flying out of our mouths without thought, cannot be retracted.
There is no "DELETE" button as there is with writing.
Once they're out there there's no erasing them.
Sometimes saying "I'm sorry!" isn't even enough.
Nice writing, James.

For me,  amends are better than saying sorry.

I tend to hurt myself more than others.....

I identify with your poem....the ex wife.....it ended up best we went our own ways.

Peace JCG
