Resentment
Comments and remarks cut like a knife
All too often I've heard it throughout my life
The scars and wounds seem too deep to heal
It often leaves me with little to feel
At times I feel great and severe pain
For no reason at all it seems
The empathy I feel toward other's hurts
I mask them with unfeeling words
At times too harsh and cold with resentment
Hiding my true feelings and hurts with ointment
I help others to help boost myself and can go on
For I find it helps bury my own thoughts long gone
Elisabeth Stover 1995
