Forgiveness
A eleven letter word that confuses me
People say forgiveness bring peace
They say, it heals.
Open up new doorways
Start new chapters
Yet I am here to debate.
Forgiveness lets see
I forgave a woman once for stealing my husband
The very next day she conceived.
Not one but two
She divided my unhappy home
Took me through the battlefield.
Placed my tears in a jar
Causing me to wish upon a star
Forgiveness I am here to debate.
I knew a boy once
Who gave me his heart
My careless ways.
My selfish actions
Brought him nothing but pain
One could say, I made him go insane.
I am ashamed
I am to blame
Now nothing is the same.
Forgiveness I am here to debate
My heart is in pain
Wish you could stop the rain.
