A TIME TO LIVE AND A TIME TO FORGIVE

For my own healing to begin,
I must, at last, forgive you.
And just as He forgives me,
it is the right thing for me to do.

By forgiving you, I don't say
that your crime against me is less.
Just that the anger caused by it,
cripples my chance for happiness.

True, you haven't asked for it,
but here I am  , forgiving you.
So my life returns somewhat to normal,
it is simply something I must do.

And just as my heart in its circle,
changes  bad blood to good in its river,
alll the bad that I received from you,
I transform now, as your forgiver.
