Keep Fighting

it’s worth not giving in not giving up how I yearn for fortitude to overtake my heart and release dark thoughts and stormy clouds that fill my sky and weigh me down how I pray for sunny days of freedom AP: Honorable Mention 2021 Submitted on February 22, 2019 for contest END FEB 2019 sponsored by BRIAN STRAND Originally posted on November 25, 2018

Great poem. My biggest struggle in life is my unforgivness. I may be right in being angry but my unforgiving heart is wrong. I say I forgive and wait for a good feeling and it does not come. I must trust God to read my heart and know I have forgiven that person. It is a divine thing. I once heard a good quote that holding a grudge is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die.

Absolutely, Timothy. Right on all counts. I too have a lot of learning to do. Thank you for your most appreciated visit and comment.

Forgiveness helps the forgiver more than the one who did the deed, Line, so try to do it if you can.
