Bitter Soul

Poison seething in soul,
This bitterness I hold,
Oozing deep within,
Knowing this is my sin.

Praying to not partake,
Needing to just forsake,
Yet clinging to my spirit,
Cries for all to hear it.

Raising a fist tightly,
I fight this mightily,
Overcome with the anger,
Fearing this a danger.

Finally ready to let go,
Releasing wounds of old,
Now ready to be healed,
New day to reveal.
