Ever know a person who can’t      let go of the past     in their head it eats away what they think      they should have. How deeply               words can hurt when hardened by jealous tone words stemmed from                   contempt        can cut deep to the bone. The past is the past       for a reason let it stay where it’s meant to stay move on from what you think       is yours      make way for better days. Show happiness for others   even       when it’s hard to do believe it or not it helps you      become a better you. You can’t change what was never         meant to be but you can embrace what you have in life        but only if you set your thoughts        of entitlements free.                 Don’t let yourself get caught up       in the negativity      brewing in your head   move on and enjoy     what you have in life                          let others do the same focus on what tomorrow will bring instead. There is power         in words      and when used in kind      can comfort and sooth a tortured     heart, soul and mind.    So watch     what you say        and just how you do for some other sharp tongue       might just attack you.

Words Can Be A Wicked Weapon
Ever know a person who can’t      let go of the past     in their head it eats away what they think      they should have. How deeply               words can hurt when hardened by jealous tone words stemmed from                   contempt        can cut deep to the bone. The past is the past       for a reason let it stay where it’s meant to stay move on from what you think       is yours      make way for better days. Show happiness for others   even       when it’s hard to do believe it or not it helps you      become a better you. You can’t change what was never         meant to be but you can embrace what you have in life        but only if you set your thoughts        of entitlements free.                 Don’t let yourself get caught up       in the negativity      brewing in your head   move on and enjoy     what you have in life                          let others do the same focus on what tomorrow will bring instead. There is power         in words      and when used in kind      can comfort and sooth a tortured     heart, soul and mind.    So watch     what you say        and just how you do for some other sharp tongue       might just attack you.
Just a storm that’s been brewing in my heart, I often wonder if we realize that words can hurt just as much as a connecting blow… Learn to be happy with what you have in life, not what you think you’re entitled to for thoughts of entitlement brings strife. Let it go, move on, make life better for someone else.
