Forgiveness
Grudges do nothing but bring down the holder
Strangled with hate while the other feels nothing
With forgiveness the weight is released from his shoulders
For he feels love instead of growing colder
-
Holding grudges is a poison that is willingly taken
It controls your thoughts and numbs the senses
Only with forgiveness can your truly awaken
For peace will be found and your relationships will strengthen
Strangled with hate while the other feels nothing
With forgiveness the weight is released from his shoulders
For he feels love instead of growing colder

Holding grudges is a poison that is willingly taken
It controls your thoughts and numbs the senses
Only with forgiveness can your truly awaken
For peace will be found and your relationships will strengthen

Very good. Very true.
This poem is wonderful. It captures the true feelings that accompany holding onto sin and also the wonderful feeling of forgiveness. Believe me...I would know.
