No Love Lost

No love lost
  all these 32 years
still lobbing grenades
  shielding the tears

A heart cannot heal
  'til the anger's let go
throw the weapons away
  he's no longer the foe

Holding onto anger never serves a good purpose. Your nicely written poem expresses the idea very well! :)

You are so right, Evelyn. Anger can consume an otherwise healthy person. Let's vote for happiness and love! :) gw
