Forgiveness is the key,
To defeating your enemy.
For what power can one have,
Over a free soul?
The answer is none
And forgivness is how this freedom is won.
If you cannot forgive
Then how will you live?
To truly forgive one must not forget,
You must remember and yet,
Move forward without feelings untoward,
And not presume to judge as some mighty lord,
Or ones soul may jump overboard.
Often times this I do forget,
And this always leads to regret.
Pity the man that has fallen down,
And do not give him that disgusted frown.
Do not presume that you are any better,
For you do not know the pain that is his thether.
This you help me to remember,
As you ignite my fading ember.
