THE HEAVIEST LOAD YOU CAN BEAR
So you’re bitter and all disillusioned
and you think you’ve been hoodwinked and had!
Look around! there are others less lucky:
And you’ll find that it isn’t so bad.
Is there someone you trusted and shouldn’t?
Forgive it. Forget it. Go on.
Maybe vengeance is sweet for the taking.
But it’s bitter remembered anon.
I’m not one for the preaching of sermons:
To live and let live; That is all.
Not to judge or condone or condemn them.
When the music has gone, leave the hall!
And I’ve learned from each bitter experience
Not to have hate or despise or compare,
If you live with a chip on your shoulder
It’s the heaviest weight you can bear.
