And one day I won’t be this bitter,
My tongue won’t need a babysitter.
And one day I’ll learn to take a “no” –
Perhaps tomorrow,
Not today though.
One year the revenge will even out,
My hands won’t shake, lips won’t pout.
Maybe even this week I’ll be fine –
But not right now
While I’m still vile.
I promise – one morning it’ll stop.
There won’t be any tears to mop.
And one morning I’ll just let it go –
The time will finally
Take it slow.
