Forgiveness



What keeps you awake
is your soul
protecting your heartbreak
their spewing of bile
with the mask of a smile
that makes you feel 
completely unreal

try to surrender
your mind to peace
& the flood of anxiety
will cease

forgiveness

will lift that
burden of hate
& give you faith

the power to move on
to trust another soul
to someday bond.

Forgiveness is an important step. It is more for the person forgiving than for the one being forgiven. It is always a good thing to let go of hate.

(Nice self portrait as well!)

Forgiveness can be difficult at times but it is so freeing to let go of anger,it's so self destructive. Beautiful poem!
