Me or You
You're saying there's evidence of my kindness
In the fact that I've never spoken the sour words lying behind my lips
But I thought them all the same,
Cold and biting
Words only a bully would say
And maybe I've been too kind for too long
May'be I've taken care of everyone else when I should've been taking care of myself
And all the hurtful things I could've said are bubbling up
I even considered sending them anonymously
Kids will be kids, as they say
And there is power in such a clearance
Power brimming with an utterly human evil
