Bitterness

Bitterness is a black pool of bad poison And when it liquifies it saturates once warm and loving hearts Leaving them ice cold,ill and frozen Whoever it has chosen they chose bitterness first It is more awful than anger with it's slow soul corrosion... Like a creeping mad curse It's voice speaks the next verse leaving it's listener feeling justified but still jaded and jagged Like a sour off key symphony of souls...shattered spirits too rough around the edges...too raw and too ragged Truth tellers can tag it...still it's victims claim it's a virtue and never a vice Take a word of advice! Get rid of that garbage before your days turn darker and your sad life soon decays Give it to God! Get on your knees and pray

You absolutely right. The sooner one gives it to God the better.
