The Realistic Side of Rejection
If you’ve never been rejected
And you don’t care how
You have affected
Someone’s life or their demeanor
You couldn’t be much meaner
Rejection can send someone
In a downward spiral
It makes them feel their
Head has been stuck in a fire
It can stop peoples
Progress in their love walk
Makes them feel someone’s using
Fingernails on a chalkboard instead of chalk
For those of you who don’t understand
And just really don’t care
I can turn someone’s life
Into total despair
It will stop tremendous
Stride they’ve made in their life
And bring about extraneous
Turmoil and strife
It will tear your dreams apart
And seriously break your heart
Rejection kicks you down
No more smiles just a frown
Rejection unbalances the scale
Leaves you feeling helpless and frail
You start to realize people are cruel
Makes you want to call them out
To an old fashioned dual
For those of you hell bent on
Destroying people’s lives
Hang on hard and fast
Your life is going to take advice
For all of you who reject
People for who they are or
What they have been
May god have mercy
On your soul for you
What I feel like is the most
Unpardonable sin
Because you can destroy a life
How could you ever think
That was right
