Forgiveness is of my own,
Not to go to those that have done wrong to me,
Release the rope, their bad deeds done,
They will no longer hold grip on me.

I forgive to begin my healing,
To release my mental stilts,
To come crashing down so I can build myself up stronger,
Their pain no longer hurts like a crushing boulder.

To forgive is to make space in your heart for the new,
Use that energy on something just for you,
Create, dance, hobby, sing, write, read, bike or hike

That’s what forgiveness is about.
There’s no reason to be constantly down and out,
Sometimes a good cry is all you need,
But pause… Dont stay there, in the silent, for they are no longer there.

You’re free, once you forgive, to heal your wound,
Don’t rebuke that it’s not your responsibility.
Your new mission, find the tranquility,
To start a fresh in a new head and heart space.

So take my hand, and take my plead,
Please don’t grow the volatile seed.
A healing story is all you need.

So take my hand, come with me,
And you’ll find your story, hands tremblin’

….

Who can you forgive today?
