The words you could not say
How often do you meet someone who (almost) never apologises? Or admits they're wrong? And if you show compassion and empathy towards them, the greater their unyielding behaviour?
Remember that if you're a good person and you set a high standard of treating others well, you have to accept that some people refuse to see the Light. They lack emotional maturity and enlightenment. The best you can do is show the way to a better world, forgive them, and move on.
The words you could not say
By Michelle Morris

There are so many words out there
There are so many words inside
You think you can hide from the Light
You think your Demons will keep you right
But you forget what happens
To those who refuse to show the Good
Slowly but surely they become colder
Their hearts iced towards Humanhood
Those Demons that you harbour
They are your constant passengers from the Dark
They'll snatch up any Joy you experience
They'll try to kill your Soul's Spark
And the words you could not say
Yes, the words you would not say
They'll be carved inside your Soul
They'll etch that Blackness every day
Over Time you'll forget your Essence
The "I'm sorry" and "I was wrong" moments merging
The Silence each and every time
Allows those Demons who are converging
And one day you'll realise you're alone
You've isolated anyone who ever cared
You'll be trapped in the Abyss of Darkness
Feeling cold and sad and scared
I hope that when you reach that Dark Space
That you'll consider believing in the Light
That God and His Angels exist for all
That you can try to appreciate their Kindness
For there may still be a chance for you
To escape the Fates of Hellfire
By cleansing your Heart and Soul
And asking for Forgiveness for your ire
Because that deep Rage you carried
That Bitterness and Unkindness
It stole your Empathy and Compassion
Left you behind a Wall of Emotional Blindness
And the words you could not say
Yes, the words you would not say
They'll be carved inside your Soul
Unless Love and Light wash it away
Only you can change your Ending
Only you can become Good and Kind
Embracing Empathy and Compassion
Using the right words that touch Hearts and Minds
