Forgiveness Is Divine

Forgiveness is finding a way to
Overlook hurt that someone has inflicted on you
Reasons for the hurt are not always understood
Giving forgiveness is usually good
It sometimes takes a very long time
Valient efforts to put aside a “crime”
Everyone creates their own circumstance
Not all give others a second chance
Expressing forgiveness isn’t always accepted
Sometimes the wrong doing is awfully deflected
Sorry’s been said it is your choice to take it
Is the person sincere? Or trying to fake it?
Saying “I’m sorry” is it just words
Do they really mean it or are they being absurd?
If you find it in your heart and choose to forgive
Virtue is learned, you’ve helped someone live
If you forgive “it” must not happen again
No more wrong tolerated by you from them
Everyone’s forgiveness is different some takes much time
                 It comes from the heart..to forgive is divine
