Please Forgive Me For I Have Sinned

please forgive me for I have sinned they've stolen from me and I'm taking revenge my suffering,my pain, my iniquity my salvation is drained from my body if only life could stop, for me I'd cry for me I'd shed only one drop of a tear my heart would shatter like a piece of glass my body would break down like melting ice only at this time please forgive me, for I know not what I do please forgive me, for the broken commitment I made unto you a single moment, a breaths taken away and your gone still how could I have been so wrong I look up into the sky, as if itself were my savior my punisher and my deliverer punish me for it is deserved and forgive me for the words i served forgive me, for I know not what I speak take for granted my mind, my body and soul deliver me from the cores of destruction to a path of a story untold so cold, so unreal so unspeakable temptation leads to desire, desire leads to sin imagine yourself falling in and not being able to swim my mind was free , my heart was stolen,my body was found, my soul became a token of creed and evil upon the ground my senses remain, as i disappear please forgive me, for I know not how to talk and forgive me for the bitterness in my silence as my soul begins to walk to a place of everlasting to a kind of unknown to a time of never begins Please forgive me for I have sinned!

The emotion comes through your words on this one. Though it's important to seek the forgiveness of others one also has to learn to forgive oneself. Congratulations on having your poem featured. Best wishes with your writing. Karen

Very powerful words! I don't understand what a sin is. To me it's the foundation of the world and people are more afraid to be without it than with it. The way I see it, no one has a right to claim your actions hurt them unless they decided to feel hurt by them, the phrase 'playing the victim' captures that well enough. Therefore they don't need to forgive you for the pain they decided to feel. There's only one person who needs to forgive you, and it's not Jesus, per Micheal's comment below.

Tyesha - Thats the beauty regarding the life of Christ - He will forgive that sin - it's just human nature to want to hurt those who hurt us - Welcome to the Soup - Happy New Year & God Bless, MJ
