Eviction Notice

Eviction Notice

A Poem by Marilyn My Bitterness

Dear Resentment,
                Leave your house key on the table, please. I wish this to be brief. I no longer want you in my home. It's time for you to leave.You have overstayed your welcome, and are no longer wanted here. These four chambers can not accommodate you. You have grown too large it appears. I knew it was your time to go, when you started pushing others out so you could fit. Love didn't appreciate it, when you kicked her out onto the pavement. Patience and Understanding agree, that you need to go. You have pressed them so tightly that even the walls are starting to bow. As I am the landlord here, I must bring things to order. While this pulsating and red four bedroom home isn't much, it's all I have to offer. Forgive me for not giving you a month, a week, or even a day. You see, this is my home. And in my home you can no longer stay.
                   Sincerely,
                                                Kokoro

This is a very good example of personification. your heart has realized that if it doesn't evict resentment, that it will eventually take over and even the heart itself will lose control of its property. While some resentment is warranted, I'm glad that you are putting forth the effort to let it go. That person that you had it for most likely more than deserves it, but through this allegory, you have demonstrated just how much of a great person that you are.

I think this is very cleverly put in words and this is exactly what i would like to say to resentment..you have put it very well..
Resentment can be very self destructive..and it distances you from your loved ones and leaves a bitter after taste.
