I Believe

I believe in Heaven, and I believe in Hell, I believe that a believer, should forgive as well. I have seen the downfall, that follows sin, robbing friendships, and putting distance between kin. I have seen brothers, turn on the other, and family values fade, further, and further. I have seen I love you, go without being said, and go on pretending, their life is being fed. I believe the passage, to a higher walk, comes from living each day in love, and forgiving ones faults. Eyes are watching, they see what we do, if we claim it, then we better be ready to follow it through. The world has plenty, to worry about, these things will be answered, one day, no doubt.

Christy, your poem reminds me of lyricist/singer Don Henley's "Heart of the Matter." Imagine, a song about forgiveness! Great poem. We would all be better off if we could learn to forgive, both individually and as a nation. Carolyn

True message here, I totally agreed.. too much petty stuff keeps family and friends apart for far too long...With all the world has to worry about, the little stuff doesn't come close to what's important..We need to realize now is the time when we need each other more than ever..Well said, Great write!!God Bless*Tyesha
