Self-Forgiveness :: Indonesian Sonnet
Guru said, how many times to tell you
it's okay to make mistakes but don't sit
idle; accept it, good part now you’d knew
how it fails, don't try to prove you're unfit.
Also, learned the self-forgiveness to you,
how to love self despite fault, not to quit.
Cherish steps taken to correct and do
once more; don't hold negative thoughts and sit.
Look at those poor lives, they're homeless, sick too
Thank HIM, you're better off, not a misfit
So forgive yourself for your mistakes, do
not regret, said Guru, do you get it?
Don't worry much about what other do
think of you. Do things you love to make it.
