FORGIVE and FORGET

No hard feelings
Let’s start anew
Bury the hatchet
Best thing to do.

Wipe away anger
Forgive and forget
Those harmful words
The things that we said.

Anger and turmoil
Things got too hot
Let’s start all over
Let’s give it a shot.

Take down the volume
Slow down the pace
No need to be hateful
No need to save face.

Let’s calm the waters
Take a deep breath
Think before speaking
See “white” and not “red”.

Learn to be patient
No need to judge
No reason to hold
Or carry a grudge.

Life is too short
We could run out of time
Before it’s too late
Let’s try to be kind.
