Argument

We argued, and said the cruelest things,
We knew the words that would hurt the most,
I’m sure neither of us meant it,
But it’s already been said.
All we can do is ask for forgiveness,
And hope the other accepts it. 
In the heat of the moment,
We became so cold,
When we both know, 
We’re each other’s world.
If we take a breather, 
before we talk to each other,
Maybe this can change,
When the anger subsides,
Our love will bloom again.

This is really good. Arguments sure often happen between people who love each other when the passion seeps through in an ugly way. So easy to say what one doesn't mean.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed."
