let us not pretend
to be genuine,
authentic and
congruent is
often the most
difficult aspect
of the human
experience,
to own that hate
and resentment
grows inside us
like a field of wild
flowers blooming
in a spring meadow
on a beautiful day.

Dear BK,
I like your comparison of resentment and wild flowers. I thought that was an interesting description that was wise and thoughtful in terms of masking the unpleasantness of resentment deceptively behind something pretty. What I find the most unpleasant is how resentment eats your guts out.
Your poems always make me think. I really appreciate that ability. H🌷

Resentment is like swallowing poison and expecting someone else to die. The only person we harm is ourselves.
Thank you for the kind words, Honoria.

Unhealed toxicity is a pollutant to natural environments. Well stated, Kitts.

I've always felt that pretends and facades don't last, the natural state of mind and self eventually come up for air.
Well penned.
