we always speak of forgiveness
does it really exist?
we say we forgive each other
then we make a fist

i could say i'm sorry
one hundred million times
but the stain still remains
inside of our minds

maybe up in heaven
is the only place it lives
we can try with all our might
but only God forgives
we say that we forgive, but we don't...we harbor those feelings inside forever...we have all been there, we are told we are forgiven, yet the next little thing triggers those feelings again, and we sometimes even bring it back out...that's not true forgiveness
