Forgiveness

They say I should forgive you, would someone tell me how
No nevermind please don’t, I’m just not ready now.
I’m not ready to absolve you of all your many sins
I know this isn’t right because no one really wins
You never asked for mercy from me in any way
So I cannot find forgiveness at least not today.
When I meet my maker & reach out to hold His hand
I hope He’ll take it in his & truly understand

Name: Yesterdays_ashes

Location: United States

These are my poems that deal with a life time of healing from childhood sexual and physical abuse. I was a victim of abuse at the hands of my stepfather from the age of 9 thru the age of 18, however, the physical abuse never stopped until I left home at the age of 19. I would like to say my troubles ended there but sadly I walked into another abusive environment when I married my ex-husband. The abuse has long ended & I have been blessed in my life with a wonderful husband & beautiful daughter. However. the healing from the past has just begun. My poetry has nothing to do with talent but everything to do with emotions. Peaceful Blessings to all who come here to read my words. Tina

Dance as though no one is watching you. Love as though you have never been hurt before. Sing as though no one can hear you. Live as though heaven is on earth.
