A Grudge

When a person keeps a grudge,
they make hateful feelings that just won't budge.

When these feelings won't go away,
a darkness builds up inside to stay.

When this darkness has surrounded the heart,
the mind is so clouded it can't tell feelings apart.

When hate and love have been clouded together,
one evil thought is now there forever.

And when a person has made so many evil things,
they know anger and sadness is all a grudge brings.
