Poetry: Forgiving

by TreAuna Cook

Created on: June 16, 2009

No one can see it.

No one can tell the pain I'm going through.

I act like I'm fine but deep inside, my heart aches.

I'm filled with bitterness, confusion and hurt.

All eating away at me.

I feel let down. I feel resentment.

I try to be a good person and be strong and forgive.

But forgiveness is such a big thing.

How can a person do so without putting oneself in a vulnerable position

And as soon as I think I'm starting to let go, something triggers the memories and I ache all over again.

I try not to let it show but how can I keep it a secret forever?

I know this will make me stronger, and this all has a reason.

But what reason? What possible reason does this all have?

I know I have to rely on God. Which is what I'm doing.

But do I forgive?
