Analysis of Anger and Forgiveness
Corina H. Ramirez 1964 (San Angelo)
All I ever wanted to do
was for my girls to get along,
but the more I tried
the more it went wrong.
They argued with each other
said a few hateful words,
but it was a bit to late
they were all over board.
It's true what they say
parents who love their kids still,
can easily forgive them
way over the hill.
Now they are all scattered
maybe it's for the best.
this time apart
they can put their anger to rest.
Can y'all ever forgive me
For trying my best to,
bring you all together
for I was so true.
