Blame

Blame is an easy way out, to clear your name, the doubt.
But what the consequence is, no one comprehends
Fights it causes, makes matters worse,
No end reached but still the end it is for all.
Why can’t things be said as they are,
Accepted and moved on with, make a fresh start?
Is it so tough to make the relationships work?
To be humans who accept their errs?
Let’s leave the scorn aside for a while and say what’s in the heart,
Make a new beginning of this disgraceful debated last part.

I liked it, it was all so realistic. But dude next time instead of concentrating on rhyming the words just write what you feel first and then edit. Rhyming isn't as important as getting your feelings across.

The blame game. We all play it. It's easy to pass the buck onto someone else rather than own up and take the consequences. How many people especially in today's world own up to making mistakes. From the poor man on the street to the billionaire in a corporate head office are all guilty of it. But you know the poor man's error might only one man while the error by the big guy may hurt the millions.

The mistakes of the big guys are being felt around by us all. Be it the price of oil, food or the price of a senseless war. Who will the governments blame when there is plenty of oil to burn but not enough food to feed? Who will the mother blame for her son's death, the one that died for nothing when the war ends with no world peace?

Ok... as you know this a little beyond me kind of subject... but nonetheless :)

Blame... well we all are guilty of it. I can't think of one person who hasn't done it or wouldn't do it. Honestly, though I (or maybe all of us) would accept its wrong, but it inevitable... its natural...

People can always have their own opinions and reasons for doing so...

One can say its harmful to a relationship...while the other might view owning up the mistake as a weakness.

Its not easy to accept one's mistake... one has to be brave and the relationship strong...

Shruti sweetie... life ain't perfect ;) (But no harm wanting it to be)
