Excessive Complaining is Poison

For years it seems you've built a breeding ground,

In this place, only negative speculation is found,

Topics discussed while vary in persons, place, or thing,

At the end of the day, they all have the same ring.

Never can I pass by without hearing irritation,

It's sad that what seems to be held in anticipation,

Are discussions that can only see the damage done,

And each conversation never ends at 1.

As time has passed one thing I continue to hear,

Is the lack of any genuine concern or care,

I have been asked how I can ignore,

The trouble of those leaving that'd of been in store 

I understand that such things can't receive support,

As that'll only encourage the wrong to Sally forth,

But I have a question I must throw to them,

How will bringing this up again make the problem end

It's not as if ranting or insulting has had a good effect,

So your reasons for doing so, I can not detect,

Yes, a rotten apple shouldn't be left to stay,

For eventually they'll lead the rest to decay. 

But it seems you've all forgotten an important fact,

A problem can not be solved by verbal attack,

When something is wrong or some lose their way,

The only way to help is to pray.

It's cruel to act as if those wrong you can ridicule,

And I don't care if in your eyes this makes me a fool,

I see you as foolish for continuing in your pursuit,

Because to me, I have not seen it bear good fruit 

Year upon year those closest to me,

Go through each day quite miserably,

And on top of that though they're unaware,

The treatment they may receive on the surface is fair 

Down below the reality is quite bleak,

For I hear what it is some truly seek,

After all this time all I think about

Is the hope that those lost will remove others' doubt.
