Sometimes I say things <br />I really regret. <br />But I can't seem to stop myself, <br />Not on a bet! <br />Oh, I try to breathe and <br />Calmly relieve, <br />My tension-filled point-of-view; <br />But, instead, <br />I puff and wheeze and <br />Strangledly squeeze <br />Hissed words, <br />I don't care to repeat. <br />Then, I'm truly sorry <br />For all the words <br />I have to eat!<br /><br />Carla Hart Ruber<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/truly-sorry/
