Lock jaw
If you see me in years to come, don't be afraid to say hello.
I won't sink my teeth or lock my jaw over things that were never mine.
I won't spit venom to burn your skin or scold your heart over things that I never had.
I won't look down on you from my pedestal, grudgingly and harshly over things that slipped away.
Bitterness is a taste reserved for the tongue,
not hearts and souls.

Bitterness is a taste reserved for the tongue,
not hearts and souls.
