And I know I shouldn’t raise my voice, but inside I want to shout at you:
Get the hell out of bitterness!
Fight and push and scream to get out!
It’s no place to stay for long
Bitterness is dense like the salty Dead Sea
It can feel great to float on the surface for a while
But it’s hard to get out, to push your feet down to the bottom, back to solid ground
Like the Dead Sea, it’s toxic water
Denial will only keep you alive for so long
And I want you alive…
