forgiveness

by. rsy

accept

the degradation

of what i thought i knew

the realization that

my being was imbued

with feelings

once overpowering

now skewed

accept

that i had

a part in this too

if not, that justice

will remain true

accept

the shortcomings

of humans and our views

release

for betterment, i choose

to accept, not to lose

hope in all that is

and can be

good

“Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive” Colossians 3:12-13 ESV
