Anthony Hellman - FORGIVE

The yelling and screaming now ends,
Enemies where once friends,
The feelings that tore us apart,
Had I only opened my heart?
The rage within me,
roaring wildly and viciously like the storming sea.
The anger that lived deep within you,
I never knew.
Sadness and sorrow, we are now fleeting apart,
Where once love and joy lived within two forgiving hearts.

I choose now to forgive, as you forgive me,
Sharing the same feelings that were strong once before,
The ones deep in our hearts we did not ignore.
Once we learn to forgive and leave the past behind.
In this truth we achieve piece of mind.
Love will blossom and grow for all times,
I forgive myself first, so that I may forgive the rest, at all times no matter how trying
I will do my best.
With love glowing in my heart.
Always knowing that through forgiving we will never part.
