Grudge Poems

maybe

maybe one day, in another time, another universe, the little girl in me doesn’t feel so deeply. maybe she learns to balance her emotions so she won’t end up getting so hurt every time. anything remotely upsetting in her life, makes her sad for weeks on end. enough to the point where she won’t eat.

Grudge

A Poisonous growth, a grudge to hold, buried deep inside. 
Lays there slowly festering, the darkest corners of your mind.
I have on good authority you think people favour me.
Riddled is your blood, such deep rooted jealousy.
You say that you have no one, but there’s people all around. And so you’re infecting others with the insanity

The Grudge

Bubbling mouth everyday 
Like an old maid out of reason 
Bearing false words in every way 
Like a holy tongue out of season 

Going to church four times a week 
Trying to work for their salvation 
But everytime their tongues speak 
Nothing but vilification 

Better far not preach your faith 
If by your tongue you

Premium MemberThe Crow's Grudge

The old crow knows my face and does not like me at all
for in the corn filed I threw rocks at him while shouting Caw! Caw! Caw!
Now in the mornings he is perched high into the trees
watching and waiting for me to get out and leave
Once I am outside and walking down the path
he dive

Premium MemberDid Not Know She Was Holding a Grudge

She did not speak to me for a year.
I was busy, and did not realize she was holding a grudge.
I did not do anything to her, as far as I knew.
I kept leaving messages, but she never called me back.

One day she was at a mutual friend’s house.
I said “Marilee is there!” The friend said

Budge To Dodge Grudge

When you are as a fool titled
Calmly proceed with no grudge
In case you abnormally erupt
You just take the title firmly

Criticisms all can level
Without a tinge of truth
If you take it seriously
Peace will ditch you soon

Those making a scary attack
Will forget you very soon
If you carry their rotten act
You mind does accept filth

They achieve a silly

Premium MemberHolding a Grudge

Can someone explain to me holding a grudge?
Even when it’s harmful some folks won’t budge
On their personality it leaves a noticeable smudge
In the long run, it’s a terrible thing to misjudge.

Isn’t it true that jealousy leads one to begrudge?
Can someone explain to me holding a grudge?
It’s sort of like a lingering oily residue called sludge
Every

The Pride of the Defeated

come on, open that door to face
what did you leave in the antechamber of your happiness
(I'm talking about the sad, chained lions roaring their nightmares
of the bloodthirsty watering that produced the fruits of illusion
of the black nights that drowned out the desperate cries
of those who didn't care to be exuberantly happy
while his brothers were swallowed

Premium MemberHow To Hold a Grudge

If different ways we see,
And so you don’t agree,
I beg you not to judge,
For I will hold a grudge.

My grudge is often long,
Because my will is strong.
And far too deep inside,
The grudge will often hide.

And there will be no doubt,
Of when you see it out.
And maybe not as soon,
But when it’s opportune.

For I will know

Bare Grudge and Not Fudge Or Budge

will not give a budge
she always will bare a grudge
never liked my fudge

a slap in my face
no freedom or any trace
was their style and grace

Combat at the Capitol

sure to transpire
Trump liked being a liar
he does desire

how can we forget
things happened we will regret
standard start to set

made analogy
regarding psychology
need an apology

saw Trump swing in swamp
which is

Premium MemberQueen of the Grudge Holders

She is the best grudge holder I have ever met.
I must give her the crown for longest stamina for a grudge.
It is a rare person who would take satisfaction from this title.
She is one who not only likes it but thrives in it.
Reveling in her pouty ways, scaring off suitors and family.
I would ask her

Soothing Love

Thank you very much
For having such a heart,
such a blooming heart,
such a bleeding heart,
and guiding and guarding
that child from them,
from that pack of wolves. 
 
A decade ago, it happened, 
and it happened for a decade.

Occasionally, instantly and 
insistently, they released
Montague – Capulet grudge,
they trudged generationally,
on him, that trembling lamb.
 
They used his bed as

Neither revenge take
Nor a grudge bear; sure the first
will the second be...

For I am the Lord
Revenge is Mine; yours, to love
your neighbor, like Me
