Writer's Block: Sleep on it

Sep 25, 2009 20:41

I say things I shouldn’t when I’m angry, all the time.  If I’m angry, I’m gonna end up saying something cruel and twisted that I don’t mean at all.  If I say something cruel and twisted, or bring up something horrific from the past, it’s a good bet when I’m angry.  It’s a really bad habit I have.  A reaction I use to protect myself.  I’m not all that big, but damn, I can cut people down with words in a heartbeat.  Do I apologize?  Most of the time.  All of the time.  I end up really embarrassed afterwards, which often just makes me even more hostile.  I don’t know if it brings the person and I closer.  Sometimes the words that have been said can’t be unsaid, and an apology just isn’t enough.
