forgiven*
what have you done
that actually requires this grace

@journeyofdays
yep another theme

struggle with this personally - falling in and out of phases of forgiveness

just when I think I am there...back to nearly square one

thinking about levels, types and phases

forgiven for moral, physical, psychological and emotional injury

forgiven for generational and historical  injuries

how in the hell do we do that?

in a world
not forgiven
speaking selective history

Is Anyone Gonna Forgive,
All the things you've done,you can't replaced.

Is Anyone Gonna Remember,
All the things you've said,can't be unsaid.

Are you throwing shade that you never get,
Feeling the sunlight burn off your eyelids.

Noone will forget that mess you made,
It was all your fault,no time for tears.

Is it?
Is it worth it being so cruel?
Is it?
Walking all over people you now miss,
when they turned their backs it wasn't cool was it?

Gonna have to pay for your trickery and lies,
Your real feelings were in disguise,
You could tell them all you'd like,
they'll never listen.

Is Anyone Gonna Forgive,
All the things you've done,you can't replaced.

Men with difficulty forgive and forget quickly.
Women easily forgive, but never forget.

My past is my past
it's part of who I am
now but it's not all I am
everyone has their ****
some just have more
than others...

I wouldn't mind
doing anything for them,
placing their wishes before mine,
forgiving them when no one else will.
Who are they?
My love and my pals
But,
When I realize that
My sacrifices were taken for granted
Or that they had never deserved it,
They will lose me that very moment.
And the broken tie can be mended never.

When you feel betrayed,
Do not get even.

Do not let it keep you awake.
Forgive and have a good night's rest.

In the end,
You have forgiven and at peace.

Imagine how anxious Judas must have felt
After he betrayed Jesus?
forgive and forget, really.

I have learnt to forgive
And I've learnt to forget
So with peace I shall live
Without any piercing regret

Wasting my precious tears
Over impossible gains
No one cares or even hears
How my broken heart pains

The sadness in my voice
Is nothing but my inner cry
I don't have much choice
But to move on and try

I know I'll break and fall
For my soul has grown weak
But I'll break that wall
And then I will speak

......all I need is some time!

Time to move on...

why
"cant you forgive him?"

I did. I have always prepared myself for the worst even if I did not expect it from him. I have brought myself in the exact situation a few weeks back & I have the answers already in my hand waiting to be poured out.

"then why did you left him? Love fixes things ya' know?"

"Because love doesnt cheat in the first place." I said.
