Temporary Or Permanent

So much to say and no one to say it to
Well that’s not entirely true
You just don’t want me to

You have the strength of Hercules
Yet use it to hurt those close to you

You have the judgement of God
yet use it to push people away

Quick to assume 
Slow to reason

like a lightning bolt out of hell
You are unpredictable
and shocking

You are Rocky Balboa
Picking fights with everyone
see who goes
Or see who stays

You are my best friend
and my worst enemy

For now we’ll lay this to rest
I’ll speak with you again

Hopefully soon
Maybe never

You hold a grudge
but do I deserve it

You have the judgement of God
So let’s see how the scales turn
