Yes forgiveness is hard
And some things are unforgivable
But to have piece of mind and a true heart of gold
So I’m told, you must forgive

Whatever your religion in the world today
They must all condone forgiveness
Forgive those who have wronged you
Forgive those who have lied to you
Forgive those who have cheated
Forgive those who know, know better
It is you who is their teacher now

From your sacrifice comes hope
Hope for the unforgiven to be saved
Mend their evil ways through forgiveness
My brothers and sisters
Forgive today, smile tomorrow

Nice message and nicely done. Did you mean peace of mind though?

My fault is I have problems with the forget part.

Thanks,

Tim

Forgiveness is so difficult, I'm glad you wrote a poem about it because it continues to challenge my nature and I like Tim find it hard to forget and hold on to the hurt so it's good to remind us the freedom of being able to smile with the peace of forgiving and letting go x
