I Forgive You...

To free your soul
to forgive you 
from all...

...Why is it I am so hard
on myself...
without forgiveness
for this inner self...

If you came to me
I will always listen...

...but for myself
I feel my heart deafen...

...so I may look to you
dear friend from time to time

in you I know your light 
will shine...

...for sometimes 
this soul gets lost
...I forget there is some 
of me in you...

I need to remember from
time to time...

you are on this earth with me...
my path I'll find 

...I sometimes forget this self belief
...I sometimes forget my friend you will
always be here for me...
