When Heaven Opened Up
"When Heaven Opened Up"
And when Heaven opened up
There, the dragon finally approached;
St George embraced Her Truth
The mother waiting for an apology
that never came, withdrew Her sword
Her heart gone all Light, full and golden,
is seen to do the unthinkable,
exchanges forgiveness with the heartbroken,
the one far fallen, who by necessity has finally won
Her only freedom gate token;
She remains behind
standing poetic with the soliloquy guards
dimensionless, watching over
the written
not spoken

"So Heavy I Fell Through the Earth" / Grimes
https://youtu.be/iH0kfH04U68
"Sometimes you have to lose to win".
"We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive.
He who is devoid of the power to forgive
is devoid of the power to love.
There is some good in the worst of us
and some evil in the best of us.
When we discover this,
we are less prone to hate our enemies."
"Sweet mercy is nobility's true badge."
"The weak can never forgive.
Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong."
"If you ever get a second chance in life for something,
you’ve got to go all the way."
"Mother is the name for God in the lips and hearts of little children."
William Makepeace Thackeray
