I Am Free- the Healing Power of Forgiveness
You abused me physically and mentally,
I thought you had my back totally.
I was locked in a mental jail cell,
our union together was a living hell.
Your vicious attacks tarnished my self worth,
that I constantly questioned my birth.
You were a warden of mental abuse,
I gave up on us, what was the use?
When I finally got the strength to get up and leave ,
I sabotaged other relationships like you wouldn't believe .
You remained the warden of my miserable life,
and my life was nothing but misery and strife.
I hated you right down to the core,
my hatred for you was never a bore.
Until someone shared the good news,
of Jesus Christ , I had nothing to lose.
He forgave me for all that I had done,
I realised the victory was already won.
I felt free and no longer bound,
I was able to stand my ground .
I had no choice but to forgive you ,
because I was no longer sad and blue.
In that moment I became totally free,
I want to share this with others like me.
Inspired by the “Healing Power Of Forgiveness.
