Darkness all around,
covered by broken trust ,
filled with anger and pain,
My soul was dying
Yet my body lived on.
A tiny spark,..... my heart,
beat true to love,
yet my mind swirled with confusion,
which clouded my heart,
how could the ones sent
to raise me, nurture and protect me
be
the very ones to hurt me,
break and damage me?
YET
living somewhere in my darkness
covered in thorns,
God showed compassion
to my beaten and bruised heart.
Gently , oh so gently
He healed my heart.
Showing me how to live, to love, to forgive
through examples of Bev loving on me.
Initial forgiveness was only a partial truth,
though God must have known
this was all incomplete.
For, true forgiveness sees the demons inside
yet chooses to no longer require a payment
for the damage done within.
This is what God did for you, for me,
For as I have hurt others,
You have hurt me.
This is what I chose to do,
forgive you,
As someday, I pray, others will forgive me.
