A Weight To Bear
Like unkind words once said in anger
And heavy on the soul they lay
As dead leaves falling to the ground
Seemingly forever there to stay.
Like the ever fading, rotten leaves
The angry words they will not last
As they hope to be forgotten and
Soon to be relegated to the past.
So let not the past be filled with guilt
Brought forward like a weight to bear
Drop the chain and look toward a future
Filled with kind words of love and care.
