Ninety-Nine To Life


If words could kill I would be doing “99 to life”.  But, words do kill…they kill the spirit. 

I have sailed through life leaving a wake of careless insensitivity.  I can’t help wonder how many boats I have swamped.  I’m quite sure many of my words have impacted people’s lives in a not so positive way. 

If I have swamped your boat...please accept my apologies for any anguish I may have caused.  I’ve often thought of and recalled those moments with disappointment and regret. 

My words were shape, many a day
They cut and killed, in an awful way
Now I am regretful, old and gray
Forgive me Lord, for this I pray
Amen.
