I learned

I look into my eyes
I see love
I was created in gods image
One sent from above
I had to learn to see love in me.
I am not perfect
Never would I claim
I strive to take accountability
For my actions
I accept the word blame.
I learned forgiveness
At times people have to forgive me
I learned to search the parameters of my heart
To see the pureness in my soul
I learned how to love others
I learned how to live in a world that can be cold.
