We commit a crime against ourselves
With our first vindictive thought
Our pasts are gone
We must move on
Those battles have been fought
To keep those painful memories
In the forefront of our minds
Gives the devil cause
To grasp at straws
Showing faults in us he finds
If you said that you've forgiven them
...those who hurt you in the past
Say it one more time
Forgive their crime
And this time,
Make it last

Poetry: Forgiving
I thought you should know I was haunted
Seems fitting on this bleak autumn day
All the trees stand stripped and naked
Their
To forgive
Is to lie
No one
Really forgives
Until the day
That they die
You may you do
Go through the
motions
But deep down
There
Forgiving is really our true and realer fuller real nature.
Pride prevents our love from being all fully given out.
Reliving
He sits, staring blindly into his steaming cup of coffee
Looking for answers to questions better off never asked
All he sees
by Joseph Wardy
The spirituality of forgiving,
Is the act of giving for.
Giving for the forgiven,
Erasing the harmful shadow of blame.
