Oh come now,
Be calm.
Relax.
Soft skins cuts easy;
Be cautious of your bladed tongue.
Words come across as stab wounds,
Cutting into those that they're directed at.
Be calm, be quiet.
Don't open your mouth when you're not happy.
When you do, you say things you do not mean.
Take time and be careful.
Don't hurt those close to you.
