Best Forgiven Poems
Falling like a silver star
Driven by love like red car
Slipping on the icy blue part
For you screw up breaking heart
Wondering should I go far
Pondering never have been apart
Outside I’m fine inside a scar
Blowing my mind this love bizarre
You try to fix it with a card
Confetti kisses flowers in part
Picnic time in summer at park
My heart thunders my mind sharp
Remember our first piece of art
Playing our genes like a harp
Birthing our dreams that did start
With children green esteemed sweetheart
With pros and cons on a cream chart
I decide to choose not to throw darts
To not hurt you like you hurt my heart
Love is true for it we all starve
Forgiven this day my love you are.
Forgiven
She wore a scarlet letter on her back
Tied up with chains
That strangled and kept her from being free.
She could barely breathe…
Her guilt and shame worn like a cloak around her back.
As she tries to hold her head up high,
the weight of all her stains pushes it down.
As she sits in the back row trying to be invisible.
There is talk of forgiveness and repentance…
For one such as she?
Surely not?
The man of God spoke as if he knew her.
He told a story of a women at a well
encountering Jesus.
Could this Jesus love a filthy slave like her?
As she pondered this repentance story,
She gave her mind to possibilities.
Maybe, she would give this kind of love a chance.
She felt a love surround her,
As if a warm gentle summer breeze had lifted her
and the glorious rays of the sunniest beach day
came down upon her shoulders.
She felt the weight of the heavy burdensome chains,
drop around her feet.
She felt clean and different.
A freedom that took flight in her spirit
Reminded her of the eagle
She had seen flying high above the clouds
Giving hope…
Could one really feel this clean?
She walked out that day
Onto a new path,
that went in the opposite direction.
No longer was she wrapped in chains.
The scarlet letter wiped away.
Forgiven like the women at the well,
Her head was high as her spirit took flight
Things would never be the same!
The angels in the heavenly realm
cried tears of joy
That mixed with hers,
flowing freely down her face.
Washing away all the pain of her past
A pure white robe placed upon her…
Cleaned by the blood of the lamb.

1 John 1:9 KJV - If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
I have lived my life believing these that I must work hard to make the Lord pleased.
That I must work myself to the bone, to be allowed to approach his throne.
I was afraid to approach him just as me, because I though an eyesore is all he would see.
Because my sin was as vast as the sea, I believed the Jesus’s blood couldn’t cover me.
For these are all thoughts that we all must dispel, for these are all lies from the pit of hell;
Because this is the truth that my father has told me, that we are forgiven and now I see.
That I am the righteousness of Christ and you must know, that nothing in this world can stop his loving flow.
We are forgiven once we believe, that Christ is the only way; so be relieved. Now Christ’s forgiveness is yours too, and nothing can stop him from loving you.
There is no need for sacrifices that is true; but how can that apply to me and you.
Now we can approach his throne and be free, because there is no baggage, theirs only me.
We are forgiven, yes you and me; He has made us his lights for the world to see.
We are not eyesores but diamonds you know, we are his treasures that he will show.
He will show us to the world to show that he cares, that in every detail of life that he is there.
He is within the world to make people whole and that he can makes anyone’s live into a diamond, even when there spirits as dirty as coal.
We are forgiven so we don’t need a sacrifice, because we are seen as valuable treasures in his eyes.
" inspiration from Hebrews 10:14-18"
Born of the human race;
Having fallen from grace;
We have committed sin.
Before our life begins.
Cruel concept some say;
Adam’s guilt was conveyed;
Matters not in the end;
Calvary’s cross did mend;
We have been forgiven.
For forever living;
Simply except the gift;
Healing histories rift;
Now as you shall forgive;
You shall be forgiven.
Breathe out
Breathe in
We'll be forgiven
In all these nights
Where you feel down
Just realize this-
Breathe out
Breathe in
Fly your kite
Into "cloud nine"
So you can-
Breathe out
Breathe in.
Guilt
Never
The question
The Lord forgives
All
A conscience; telling me to walk not;
But, temptation over powered.
Not listening to my mind,
sin took its course again.
Father, "FORGIVE me,
for this is the
twenty-first
time with
her."

Forgiven of My Sins Then I Rose
Out in sin nature
I'm saved by God grace and I'm
Forgiven and rose
10/15/17
by James Edward Lee Sr.
Thall shall not condemn the sin
In which he has lived in
Burning buildings always collapse
Like a thorn on a rose
Walking on shattered glass
Taking in your last breath
He comes to me holding his last breath
Does he feel the pain from his sin
You see a reflection in the glass
The long haired man steps in
He smells the aroma from a rose
Before he starts to collapse
The sin you hold will collapse
Sins can no longer breath
Being stoned from the smell of the rose
Enter the light and forget your sin
Let the long haired man in
Piece together the shattered glass
Save a piece of the shattered glass
There are reasons why it collapse
Accept the world in which you live in
Make this not be your last breath
Concur to all, rest your sin
Pull every thorn off the rose
Take your hand and cover the rose
Hide the cracks and shine the glass
Be ridden of your sin
Rebuild the buildings that collapse
It's getting easier to breath
Make a change in this world you live in
Remove the darkness and walk in
Fallen petals from a rose
You can now start to breath
No more fallen glass
Buildings no longer collapse
Forget the reasoning for your sin
Step in the reflection through the glass
Petals from the rose never collapse
Breath again, forgiven sin
Forgiveness....
Forgiveness, for me, it's hard to come by, I don't forgive easily, some people say, I
don't forgive at all..
For those people, resentment and anger fuel all my actions towards you...
Is it too much to hope for that when your time comes, you'll be sentenced to eternal
damnation?
Is it wrong of me to wish that on someone?
But, today, today is a new day, I will move past my anger and hatred that I have towards
you.....All sins are forgiven....
But, do keep in mind, while I have forgiven you, I have not, nor will I ever forget what
you have done....
You are are forgiven, but, your actions will never be forgotten.....
Mungu
amenisamehe katika dhambi zangu muda
wote
Mungu wangu Mungu wangu
amenisamehe
amenisamehe Wewe imani yangu kuwa
mbali Bado na bado anakusanya matumaini yangu,
ndoto yangu Mungu
amenisamehe Katika dhambi zangu muda wote
Mungu wangu, Mungu wangu Yeye
amenisamehe
amenisamehe katika
dhambi zangu katika
dhambi zangu
nimejazwa neema
Rehema uso
Mungu
amenisamehe
Mungu amenisamehe
Mungu Mungu amenisamehe

Flawless Crap
There once was a man that was perfect.
His actions were never incorrect.
That was his thought, for sure.
He knows now that’s manure.
As he looks at compost truck, he wrecked.

Flaws Forgiven
Everyone makes mistakes, this we all know for sure.
There was only one perfect man, who was so pure.
Imperfections are truly human traits, simple and plain.
We all need to face this, so we all can truly gain.
That our shortcomings define us, as we all learn,
To teach us reality and justice, upon our return,
Errors and faults are to be forgiven from us all.
Listen within, or you know not what may befall.

Forgiven Again
****
Human
In absolute duress
Frantically abandon Eden
Plagued by a menacing darkness
Apparition transform into Seraphim
Extinguishing flames of hopelessness
Rejuvenate emasculated mortal skin
Hearts atone then spirit rejoices
As love descend from heaven
A new advent arises
Forgiven
Again

Aboard cruise liner, "Radiance of the Seas"
Floating on an ocean--somewhere
Forgiven sleep
the day crawls with the secrets of night
