FORGIVENESS

A poison casted in the wind leaves a scar in your heart, hard of healing, but keeping it deep inside you for long makes the air that you breath suffocating. A wounding blow on your skin leaves a lesion that may heal for too long, but thinking of it everyday adds a salt to the pain that you suffer. For, a grudge that you keep buries your happiness to the deep, where your memory adds a salt to your pain; You'll be wasting your time without gain. For, hating only begets hate, and the time you wake up, it's too late; So, better find a way to forgive, and sound sleep becomes part of your treat. 5th place Forgiveness poetry contest
