Gossip

My efforts are all in vain
Without You
I seek to give up altogether
Grieving over people and their ways
Holding opinions of any kind
Who knew
That it was more or less
A backstabbing
A discussion
I want to give it up altogether
No more a word about this little world of mine that
I highly esteemed in my heart
Ever since I came in
Let’s talk about our families
Let’s talk about miracles
And the joy in the little things
No more a word
No more a mention
Just little prayers rising into the night air
Hoping for only the best
Take it away Lord
Let’s bid farewell to it all
As we near the end
I’ve forgotten the good in all the hurt
