I Don't Blame You Anymore
YoungAtHeart Sep 2021
I don't blame you anymore
for the lies.

I don't blame you anymore
for the betrayal.

I don't blame you anymore
for the deception.

I don't blame you anymore
for the carnage.

I don't blame you anymore
for the agony.

I don't blame you anymore
for the abuse.

What you meant for evil
Jesus used for my good.

"No weapon formed
against me shall prosper"
not even hatred.

Jesus  says,
I am cherished.
I am loved.
I am forgiven.
And because of Him,
I don't blame you anymore.

Retracing My Steps
YoungAtHeart Jan 2019
Looking back
through the years
writing poems
wiping tears

The past is gone
will not return
the future's bleak
reflect and yearn

" The good ole days "
not supposed to live there
it's against the rules
but can't stand to be here

I'm going back
and shutting the door
will not return
to the present no more.

— The End —
