*** Emotional Control ***

by 'Kristen Scott'

Brewing deep, the feelings bubble
Blood boils, emotions trouble
Take a breath, don't let it out
Contemplate before you shout
Moments pass, the feelings simmer
No longer boil, the anger dimmer
Frustration, rage, don't act in haste
Saying words you will regret
When moments pass would help forget
Take the time to think it through
Then your voice, it will be true
Control emotions, master moods
Don't let them get the better of you
Others will see you in in different light
Just take a breath, don't rush to fight.
