Resentment

People say forgive and forget They say live life without regrets; I say that's easier said than done Because vengeance is very fun; Just forget the pain that's been done unto me Cause you didn't experience my misery; If forgiveness makes you strong than I guess I'll always be weak Because my heart loves payback when awaken that's what she seeks; What you reap is what you sow Should I hold in the pain and anger or should I let it show? Vengeance I love you, but you don't love me I give you power through my animosity; I want him to suffer like he made me it's only fair You can beg me for forgiveness and I still wouldn't care; Treat others how you want to be treated that's what I was taught I don't like treating others badly yet that's what you brought; Vengeance might become my fate Hopefully I change before it's too late; Forgiveness is an amazing level of spiritual maturity I know somewhere inside me want that purity; It's not over I haven't buried the past There's no telling how long these feelings will last.
