About the work
The bitter nectar from your cruel years Fell from my face My cup runneth over I drank from that cup Of harshness and pain Without a chaser Letting it fill the creases Of a soul dry-heaving with shame
I drank until I got high on life lessons Until my world became sane to acknowledged the blessing
I drank until I overdose Until true strength I could boast
I drank of those bitters took them all down I drank until I had no more
until my cup was dry

Title Bitter Cup
The bitter nectar from your cruel years Fell from my face My cup runneth over I drank from that cup Of harshness and pain Without a chaser Letting it fill the creases Of a soul dry-heaving with shame
I drank until I got high on life lessons Until my world became sane to acknowledged the blessing
I drank until I overdose Until true strength I could boast
I drank of those bitters took them all down I drank until I had no more
until my cup was dry
