One Can'T Un-Ring the Bell
"One Can't Un-Ring The Bell"
There has to be at least
one dreaded moment
where bad actions and words
brought a bad spell
of regretting deeply
what was done and said,
try as one may,
"One Can't Un-Ring The Bell!
In the flash of a hot heated moment
the tongue may utter
words of fire!
Once they've been said
there's no taking them back!
The damage that's been done
will be dire!
The same applies
to one's actions!
With no thought of consequence,
one will do!
When the air clears
the sad aftermath
is full of regret
and apologies too!
One's words and one's actions
reveal a great deal!
In order to prevent
and to quell
hurt feelings along
with a hurting heart,
remember,
try as one may
"One Can't Un-Ring The Bell!"
