ON FORGIVENESS
I forgive you for leaving
when you promised me you’d stay
The tapestry of destiny was
woven to this day
For me to see all the colours
that have enriched my life
the laughter and the joys
the sorrows and the strife.
I forgive you for the painful path
I have walked along.
I forgive you for the heartache
my soul has touched upon.
I forgive you for so many things
ask, that you would do the same.
In the quiet strength of meekness
hold my head up high
…and
turn my cheek, again.
