Same Stew Brewing

Four years later, it's hard to hate her,
And yet the blisters blossom away;
It doesn't mean loving is any easier,
Than it was on that painful day.

In the darkness it's easy to harness,
The mood of a brewing old witch,
Four years later, the same stew brewing,
Always ripping with every new stitch.

In the morning my mind begins sorting,
The emotions of the previous night,
When I ponder the pain and the envy:
This vain vampire with a casual bite.

Four years later, it's no debate- her
Views will always be malignant it seems:
I'll slip in a few drops of poison myself,
Destroying her presence only in dreams.

Mon amie, Juli-Michelle, c'est fantastique! Wonderfully done! Hate should not preoccupy our heart for it is a waste of energy and time!
