Forgive

by Trinity Rayne

When someone hurts you how do you forgive
How do you go on without anger with the rest of your life to live
As their judge and jury how do you make them acquit
Even though they have sins they'll never truly admit
Why should they get to walk away absolved
While you are more healed and evolved
How do you forgive and not let your anger for them swallow you to consume
How do you purge the anger and let it go for your own growth to make more room
How do you forgive and not forget
While they walk away without one regret
How do you take your grudges for them and cleanse them away
How do you forgive someone and learn to feel okay
How do you accept the things they said and done
While your life has only now just begun
How do you forgive what they done wrong
While you hold your head high and remain strong
How do you forgive them for turning your life upside down once and for all
While you keep going and standing tall
How do you let go these feelings of anger and not let them become an anchor
How do you not let them fester and become infected as a canker
How do you forgive without stuffing down your pain
How do you not let the anger have a hold on you and stay hooked to you like a chain
How do you forgive them for their life history
How did you find the key to forgiveness because to me it's all a big mystery
