Notes About The Poem

Forgiveness- -

FORGIVENESS- - is never complete
Unless you actually say the words
____________________(fill in the blanks-your name)
Please forgive me and that I am sorry
Must mean it from your heart;
Must hear if from your voice;
Must be of free will and choice;
Must acknowledge and resist the power of non forgiveness

FORGIVENESS- -
Release yourself forgive, long, hard and sincere 
Forgive all those...
That has done you harm and wrong
This is a time when someone forgave me
I look you in the eyes, as I’m breathing I shall not lie
I say the words “I am SORRY”
And I didn’t say it in a hurry

FORGIVENESS- -
Now my forgiveness is complete
Spoken out my spirit, soul, chest and mouth
And all that I have left, tender verses of regrets
Please forgive me and that I am sorry
Must mean it from your heart;
Must hear it from your voice;
Must be of free will and choice;
Must acknowledge and resist the power of non forgiveness

FORGIVENESS- -
Release yourself forgive, long, hard and sincere 
Forgive all those
That has done you harm and wrong
This is a time that I choose to forgive you TO BE ALSO MYSELF TO BE
FORGIVEN
