Ms.Erica Jackson Poet I do not know?

Forgiveness

YOU DRAG ME THRU THE MUDD,PICK ME UP,AND REPEAT THE PROCESS. 

YET,I CONTINUE TO STAND STRONG AS A STATUE. 

BUT I CANT ACKNOWLEDGE MY PROGRESS. 

YOU SAY THINGS YOU DONT MEAN... 

LIKE YOU LOVE ME AND YOU'RE THERE 

BUT IM WISE ENOUGH TO KNOW A MASK FROM THE SKIN THATS BARE... 

YOU KNOW? THIS JUST DOESN'T SEEM FAIR... 

BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT YOU'VE WON... 

UNTIL YOU REALIZE THAT A LADY NAMED,KARMA, HAS JUST BEGUN... 

RATHER I DISPISE YOU OR NOT! 

I PREY FOR MERCY UPON YOU. 

THEY SAY SINS MAKE YOU BURN,

BUT LOOK AT WHAT THE CHILD OF GOD HAS TO GO THROUGH! 

I'LL FORGIVE YOU.... 

THE DAY IM GONE..AND FROM WHERE I STAND THAT SEEMS LONG... 

I'LL FORGIVE YOU... 

WHEN YOU BECOME PURE...THE ESSENCE OF REAL. 

I FORGIVE YOU BECAUSE I HAVE TOO.. 

OR ... I'M NO BETTER THAN YOU.... 

I FORGIVE YOU BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SOUL DO. 

SO...I FORGIVE YOU......
