Bitterness? or Forgiveness?
You carry baggage,
you cannot forgive.
Those who have hurt you,
in this life that you live.
Your hurt it shows,
upon your face.
Anger and bitterness,
you can't seem to replace.
If you carry this baggage,
for the rest of your days.
It's bound to hurt you,
in many different ways.
Set your baggage,
at the side of the road.
So you no longer,
have to carry the load.
Forgiveness my friend,
is the only key.
Let go of your hurts,
and you shall see.
It doesn't pay,
to be bitter and mad.
The pain eats away at you,
and makes you feel sad.
Only you can choose,
the way in which you'll live.
Live a life full of bitterness,
or make the freeing choice to forgive.
