Put Them On A Leash

If they have hurt you
And continue to be an annoyance
Never forget what you have been through
Put them on a leash for their defiance

This far and please, no further
Distant cousin brother or other
Why make your way the harder
Don't care if it's father or mother

If the root of the tree is still bad
How can the draw lead to your happiness
Or it's fruit be the source of your glad
For your sake offer them forgiveness

Healing comes when you apply a leash
The dog knows no hate or injury
When its this far no further for fleas
If you have pets, no need or inquiry

Do it for your own family's sake
Do it for your own peace of mind
Put them on a leash before the wake
Before the troubled discovery's find
