Boomerang

I threw out a comment using all my force The words they all traveled along their own course Betty told Bobby then Rachel told Sue Somewhere along the way, word got back to you Because I was mad I wanted you to hurt I was an idiot I dug up some dirt Now as I sit the back of my head goes bang I've been knocked out by my word boomerang So in the end if there's nothing good to say Keep it to yourself it's much safer that way Boomerang Contest

Sometimes anger gets the best of us. I remember when I was really little I had the worst little temper tantrums (people HATED having to babysit me). It's strange how I end up being kinda timid. But anyway... like Becca said it's a great lesson and you've worded it just right. Word Boomerangs aren't fun!

It's interesting how your writing is so bold and you say it doesn't translate to your day to day life.
