Forgiveness..

Sweet things happen when you let life be. 

I done a lot that I’m proud of,

I’ve done little today,

that does not drive me to the edge,

That makes me regretful

and hateful of myself.

I clear my heart of the burden that’s been hunting me, 

Guilt, passion, lust…

has now been all gone. 

It’s now in a far away place.

 

My life of pain is now history.
