Bitter

Bitter

I plead bitter tonight.
Cold howls whistle outside
Trees move to a sad.. Slow..Song.
My heart feels angry
Tired of life’s undeserved, unexpected blows.
Sitting alone...
I cry bitterly.
I should give up for one night...
Take defeats hand and waltz into pain.
Let happiness fizzle.
Into the midnight blue sky sprinkled with grey guilt
Fall onto the cold cracked dry ground...
But I have too much to declare.
