Forgiveness by: Barry Maltese
If you try to reach inside your heart you can find forgiveness, or at least the start And from that place where you can forgive is where Hope, and Love also thrive and live And with each step that you try to take and with that chance that your heart might break Comes so much happiness, and so much strength which Alone can carry you a fantastic length For hate and anger will not get you there and though you say that you just don't care You can EASILY avoid the pain on which hate feeds ... the kind of hurt that no one needs Just make the move, take the first stride let go of the thing known as "Foolish Pride" Maybe then you can start to repair the past into something strong, that will mend and last!

When a harmful word is spoken Or an unkind deed is done I always must remember I am not the only one who has ever been mistreated stepped upon or pushed aside By thoughtless harmful actions Or selfish hateful pride. The world is full of people Who purposely abuse Who lie and cheat and slander and manipulate and use Anyone and everyone Who might get in their way Of success or fame or power, No price to big too pay.
