warning to self

forgiveness hides beneath lower abdominal scar tissue
adhering steadfastly, until it rises as bitter resentment
and colors every move you make

rip it open
before you forget how to smile

Process notes:
I am currently holding a grudge against someone, and need to let it go. This is my warning to myself.
