To a brighter, kinder day.

Forgiveness Embrace

You made mistakes, that much is true,
But forgiveness now I offer you.
The past is past, let's start anew,
In forgiveness, find the view.
Hearts will heal and spirits mend,
In this gesture, let's transcend.
Forgiveness, a gift we share,
In this bond, beyond compare.

About Someone

Pardon Path

You hurt me once, but I let go,
Forgiveness helps our spirits grow.
In the past, the pain does stay,
But in my heart, I've found the way.
Forgiving you, a healing light,
Turns our darkness into bright.
Let's move forward, hand in hand,
In forgiveness, together stand.

About Someone

Release of the Heart

In the dungeon of past wrongs,
I held on to old, bitter songs.
Your betrayal, a wound so deep,
In my heart, a place to weep.
But time, the healer of all,
Helped me rise, helped me call.
To forgive, to release the pain,
To find peace once again.
In forgiveness, I found my peace,
From the chains, a sweet release.
No longer bound by past's dark art,
I move forward, with a lighter heart.
