BOTTLING UP BITTERNESS

How much can one bottle up bitterness, just easy this is not;

In the web of depression, one shouldn't ever be caught.

How does one get rid of this bottled up bitterness n pent up anger ?

Ah ! burst one day this anger will, after all, one is human not a store house of anger.

This bottled up stuff leads to depression, hypertension or disease of the heart

Then poor you, become you will, of these complications an unavoidable part.

So bottle your emotions do not, I tell myself, pour them out in ways some

I write them out, paint or sing them away; but some desperados take to ***.

If none of these help, just a kind shoulder seek n cry your heart out.

After you left for your heavenly home Vispi, of crying, I get an urge, a big bout

Come in memories, like a cascade of water, a huge, violent water fall gushing

Even if try I to stop them, with a smile fake;  these tears just come rushing

Bottled up emotions, becoming dangerous are, heart, body, mind n soul they affect

And more often than not, excruciating, long lasting n permanent are its effects.
