Your acidic tongue drips venom

I forgive you 
all the pain caused
I know it's not your fault
all the bitter words you've said
the pain you've carried
your bitter heart frozen
day after day
a dark cloud over head
old hurt and 
deep sadness
has brought
poison to your speech
the last of light gone
now darkness rules,
I can't see it,
I can't hear it,
but i can feel 
the acid as it drips from your tongue
