I Didn't Mean That
Oops oh no
I didn’t mean that
I mean
those words
just slipped out
past my frozen lips
past my smiley face.
Toxic fumes adrift
from a smoldering fire
stomped upon so many times
yet burning burn
again and on it does
Shameful flames of course of course
those words
angerspitebitterhate
Oh so sorry
Oh no
I didn’t mean that
No not at all.
those words
So sorry.
Sorry.
Oops.
