Obstinate

Biting tongues
Torturous lust
Lingering habits
Hanging dust

Relics of past
Present today
Turning the tide
Tainting your way

Crossing lines
Lingering grudge
Given to bitterness
Blatantly judge

A silent venom
Vigorous killer
Keen on destruction
A decaying pillar

All lays hidden
Harboured by peace
Perfect indifference
Indulgent release

Time is the teller
Taunting the heart
Hesitation, a killer
Keeps us apart
