There’s some people
that just milk it
for all it’s worth
They hold on
to the past
old heartches
broken promises
grudges and mistakes
the debt is never paid
the wrongs are never right
nothing’s ever good enough
lessons are never learned
They are always a victim
never a survivor
Quick to point a finger
place the blame
spread some shame
what’s done isn’t done and over
it’s set on repeat and rewind
over and over, again
Bought up and displayed
A constant show of insecurity
with a sky high price
that others have to pay
lessons never learned
forgiveness is only
a tiny little token
spoken but withheld
As they milk it
for all it’s worth
just because they can
and she’ll be damned
if she’ll be anything
like some people
