Forgiving

Forgiving from the heart
Is often hard to do.
It may be easy
To say, “I’m sorry,”
But, do you mean it?

When you mean to forgive,
The heart responds with love,
Which brightens faces,
Releases burdens,
Brings smiles to the world

Forgiveness impacts you.
You own heart is lighter.
The ulcer of hate
No longer remains
You’re set free to love.
