I Forgive You

I Forgive You

A Poem by Serendipity
"

This poem was inspired by an email I received from a preacher I like very much. His words inspire me, today's message "Freedom Through Forgiveness".

"

I Forgive You …

            … For lying to me

I Forgive You …

            … For breaking promises

I Forgive You …

            … For making me cry

I Forgive You …

            … For causing me pain

 

 

I Forgive You

            … For hurting me

I Forgive You …

            … For taking away my pureness

I Forgive You …

            … For destroying my hopes

I Forgive You …

            … For all the heartaches

 

I Forgive You …

            … For being in my head

I Forgive You …

            … For being in my dreams

I Forgive You …

            … For not fighting for me

I Forgive You …

            … For walking out of my life

 

I Forgive You …

            … For not valuing me

I Forgive You …

            … For not wanting me

I Forgive You …

            … For not needing me

I Forgive You …

            … For not loving me

 

I Forgive You …

            … Not because what you did was right

I Forgive You …

            … Not because I want you back

I Forgive You …

            … For me

I Forgive You …

            … For my peace

By far I think your best poem yet. There is a sad story most of us know in each of your poems yet "I forgive you" is the key to letting go of the hurt, healing the scars and moving forward. May your journey lead you to where tear drops never fall.

There is a great strength in forgiveness... releasing the bondage of pain and anger within... Simply expressed but not simply lived. Beautifully fulfilling...

Wow... I love this piece... It's truly remarkable! I can relate to this poem... This really touches me! This is a great poem, it's so hard to forgive and it sounds like you have.... This poem is something that everyone should read because it gives hope to everyone... To see someone forgive is a great thing because it gives hope to me.... Great Job!

This is beautiful. I can relate... but I can seem to forgive. I don't dwell on it and I don't care anymore but I also don't forgive him. He honestly doesn't deserve my forgiveness.

This is beautiful and I love how you wrote this out. Thank for sharing.

I like the simplicity of this poem. It's an important message, since forgiving another as well as oneself is no easy task! Thanks for sharing and for reminding us all to do the same.

Yes, it is good, very good. Finalized forgiveness...with peace being the result.

Good work and good choices.

Thank you for your wonderful work!

I think forgiveness is really about finding peace in yourself more than anything. This poem demonstrates that beautifully. I really loved the flow and the rhythm to it. It's also really powerful in a very soft way. Nicely done.
