Can You Un-Do Poem by Ray Hansell

Can you un-ring a bell?
Once it has been rung
Can you un-do the damage
That may have been done

When you say, I love you
Can it be taken back?
Or is it too late
Because of the impact

When you leave someone
Is that the end of it all
Is everything two people built
Destined to crumble and fall

When you’ve hurt somebody
Causing a pain so deep
Is there any reason to believe
Love from you they want to keep

It seems in life we all do things
That we wish we could un-do
Why does it seem the one’s we love
Are the one’s we do this to

How can you say you love someone
Then cause them such misery
I know that in life and love
This isn’t how it was meant to be

When you love somebody
They say follow your heart
For if your love is real and true
From love you’ll never part
