I tried to defend… just what I had said <br />Retract what …I had just spewed out! <br />But the deeper I tried now to rectify <br />The harder it got… to back out! <br /> <br />If you ever find yourself in this fix <br />Just admit whatever… it was you’ve said. <br />It’s better than trying… to find your way back <br />And you need to just keep focused… ahead. <br /> <br />No sense in trying to make it right <br />It really doesn’t seem to work. <br />And you only end up looking like a fool <br />While playing that… defensive style of jerk. <br /> <br />By: Linda Winchell <br />Copyright: 2009<br /><br />Linda Winchell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/taking-back-what-you-ve-said/
