The blank page stares at me.
No new words come to mind.
My heart is in pain for what you have done,
but I need to let it go for me to move on.
Forgiveness is for me and for you.

It's easier said than done,
I know, for I have forgiven.
The pain is almost gone now
but still lingers.
they say time heals all wounds
but forgiveness quickens the pace.

Time marches on.
Memories flood my mind,
but don't sting my heart.
They're from a past of long ago.
Photographs of lost dreams fade away while
new ones emerge and are more real and vivid
then the last.
Forgiveness allows you to go on a new path and destiny
unencumbered and free.

It's hard and takes time, for that I am sure.
When it gets too difficult to do on your own
lift your hands up, and surrender it to God.
Then let the river of life
carry you into your next chapter.
Forgiveness lets you forget the 
old past, and hurts, and
lets your heart beat again.
