release the anger

release the bile within
the cancer upon the spirit
the weights on our hearts
release the anger, the hurt
the pain within your life
all of this a burden, a chain
the weights on our hearts
a cancer, a tumor
things to be let go of
to turn from the world
our need for judgment
to give this all over
to the judgment of God
to merely walk humbly
following the example of Christ
not seeking retribution
by instead sharing love
