In high school he had the highest sales
but the coach’s son took home the prize
-acid filled his gut.
He asked her to marry him
but she laughed and married another
-his face hardened like stone.
The promotion should have been his
but his friend took credit for the work
-his arteries filled with molten steel
The new hires worked circles around him
then pushed him aside
-crushing his back in the stampede
Now he's corroded and immobilized
too many years of resentment.
How different would his life be
if he forgave others
and learned to love himself instead?
Would it set him free?
