Ingratitude

INGRATITUDE 

“No surest enemy than the one who was benefited" SOCRATES 
 

Ingratitude,
You ungrateful: 
Traitor of trust
Destroyer of kindheartedness
Apostate of friendship
Annihilator of beneficence  
Assassin of benefactors, 

How better the world 
Would be
If only you were 
Forever thrown 
Into
The ABYSS of 
Human Condemnation!

Wow, this is the anti-thesis of having a loved one with you, this one is hated, evil, disenchanted! I truly loved reading this enlightening poem this evening! Quite the spectacular piece, Great Work!!

A power write. Very aptly chosen words. Yes, ingratitude is awful. However, that shouldn't keep us from doing what is good. God will reward us in His own time.
