Thoughts About Love
:
Forgiving is Freeing

How do you forgive someone
Who's emotional abuse ended love
From daily attacks for all you did
Maybe you should forgive yourself
For trying to sustain what was gone
In attempts to deny what was there
Was it the strength you denied to leave
Thinking it was kind to stay for the kids
Tried to protect them from our fights
Maybe it's time to ask forgiveness
From He who lives in heaven above
Forgiving is a kind of letting go
It began for all those years I knew
In my heart what I needed to do
Just didn't acknowledge the truth
So my kids have forgiven, show me love
And he still doesn't understand how
Painful memories make me cry
So it's hard to forgive his personal views
The denial of his part of the sadness
But if I can forgive my heart will be set free
