Premium Member Love of My Life

So unexpected;
arriving after the fire,
as the embers cooled;
quenched with hateful bitterness.
Kindling for a sorry heart.

No Sorry Feelings

I'm swept away
by bitterness
as clouds chased
by wild
storms.


No sorry feelings;
I have changed all...
isn't it time
I loved
me?

Bitterness

Bitterness precedes Love
Loss revives Love
Pain is the constant the spans the divide
From which the heart cannot evolve nor hide


Premium Member Kindness is the way

in a world of bitterness and hate
look for signs of compassion
and make those your guideposts

Bitterness

Mother did you know
That bitterness can rot the soul
Unkind words can dig a big whole
I must be getting old
Negative words have no hold.

By nature, calm within storm and warm in form.
A tender touch resting upon a slender retouch.
A healing heart beneath a bleating bitterness.

Resentment,
rising into a spore,
of keep-forever
bitterness,

bars peace of

This Regret Is Heart-Wrenching

Many regrets have their bitterness
over things dreamed up and not done,
and unable to go back and undo them as sadness,
I can forget them all but one!

Nostalgia

Nostalgia is alluring flower
           but empty of freshness
          by far is all resentful glower
          up close it's just bitterness ...

Bitterness

What is the color of bitterness. Does it hold shape, color, distance. Can it be measured like time? Or does it fall flat like a short runned distance.

Flower of Nostalgia

Nostalgia what seductive flower
         but it's dark and resentful
         from afar it is ugly and grimy
         only its bitterness is felt close!

Coherence and Incoherence Attitudes

While bees produce honey that
   sweetens life...
   Men what do they do..?
   salt to salt the world
   and gall that bitterness
   the existence ...!

Premium Member Withering to nothing

Been frustrated for too long.
Bitterness builds like a vile crust.
Forgotten the whats and whys.

Depression Expression

I vomit out my heart
the emptiness
oh the void
you do not sting
it hurts
it burns
burns my soul to bitterness
outside i'm fine
inside I cry
I hate me
I Blame Me

Of lemon

Bitterness

I don't know if from where do people draw their bitterness against other people. But bigots nowadays don't know the difference between patriotism and puppetry...
