Emotionally Intelligent Anger is ...

"...the rare skill to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way."   ~ Aristotle

Now how many of us can do that???

Never loved her

Loved her not

Petals swirl and fall

Twenty-eight years vanish gone

Never to return

Twelve tokens of affection

Birthed in sorrow

With small protection

Never loved them

Loved them not

Watch the cradle fall

Never sweetheart

Never dear

Only owned and ruled by fear

Never loved her

Loved her not

Vows abused and mind untaught

Bonds lie broken, tears drip hot

Buried marriage, left to rot

Never loved her

Loved her not.
