Resentment is a waste of time
It will close you off from those who care
It will harden your heart and shut your mind
It will steal your joy and crush you with despair
If you allow resentment to take a stand
If you let it into your soul
If you allow it access into your life
It becomes a force too difficult to control
Resentment will make you lonely
It’s best not to become its prey
Its goal is to separate you from those you love
Its desire is to lead your hope astray
Celebrate the joy in the lives of others
Share in the happiness that others find
If you can open your heart to their success
Your own success cannot be far behind
Reject the poison of resentment
It needs your will to survive
Knock it down, deflate its ego
Do not allow resentment to thrive
