I Wanna Forgive Them,But.....

by Jeff   Apr 18, 2005


Have wept the whole night,
Have shed the saddest tears of life
My pillow is all wet from tears
I look back into my life and feel the painful part of my life
Many have taken me for granted
A lot thought I am not a human being
They abused me,they called me names
They tortured me,their kids laughed at me
They raped a friend just before my eyes
They spread lies about me all the time
They even dared to threaten to kill me
That was the darkest part of my life
I was a servant,I was an animal they didn't want
They cared less for the heart I posses
They surely wished I never exsisted
I have known a bitter part of life..its all because of them
Today I wanna forgive them
They say I will set myself free
I wanna cry no more,
Crying makes me sick,my head is always on fire
I still see them laughing,I hate their ugly faces
I am trying to forgive them
I am trying hard than you can imagine
Some have lied to me that they love me
I have been a fool to believe it was true
Now I know they just wanted to use me
I also wanna forgive them,but I can't easily do that.
I still feel the pain inside my mind
I still feel the tears drops on my cheeks
I am trying to forgive them
Somebody tell me how to do that
I wish I could forgive them and be free.
As the sun goes to rest
I still hold the anger deep inside
I wanna forgive them,but I guess I just can't.

    Jeff another very emotional poem from you, a very good one too. I can really relate to this. I have had some really hard situations in my life and I have learned how to forgive people. It's not easy to do but you'll find when you truly forgive them in your heart, YOU will feel better. Unforgiveness is a really bad thing, it can really mess you up. You just have to tell yourself you have been through enough and decide that they aren't doing this to you anymore. The hate and anger that you feel is those who have hurt you still hurting you. Please read my poem "Forever Changed"... I forgave him for everything...it wasn't easy, but I felt so much better after I did. Also, I forgave him for ME not for him. I really hope you will ask God to help you with this. I would like to see you happy!! You deserve it!!
    Take care and God bless you!!
    I'll keep you in my prayers :o)

    Jeff, A sad write, my friend. Forgiving is sometimes so hard to do but forgetting is even harder. You stay strong and ask God for some guidance, say to yourself I'm going to do this, I'm going to wipe these memories from my mind and start a new. With time you can do it. Emotional and so heartfelt, take care, hugs, lots of love, *Ann*
