They say forgiveness is a virtue,

but I’d rather keep my anger.

Younger me’s sad little heart,

Dragged down by an anchor.

To the world, I was the issue,

To this day, I do not miss you.

I hope you’re happy in your own way,

To this day, the price I still pay.

During that time, I sank so low, low, low,

How low, no one will ever know.

I relied on friends and strangers for help,

Like a dog, I did yelp.

So much rage, unable to let go,

My head, my emotions… ready to blow.

From my situation, I had to quit,

To you and those, I will never submit.

They say forgiveness is a virtue,

but I’d rather keep my anger.

I still think often of all that you done,

I finally begin to see, I’m the one that won.
