To those we hate

Too often I see you

When not in front of me

Then in my bitter thoughts

A hot and raging brew

Ever coursing my veins

To the fast beating heart

They say each must come through

To search for forgiveness

And let go of the ire

The choice to begin anew

Belongs only to me

A pawn I'll someday play

The things you say I rue

Your presence I can't bear

As you stand before me

You clearly have no clue

What lurks beyond the eyes

Now focused upon you
