Unforgiveness can bind and torment you, but forgiveness can set you free.
Freely love, freely give of yourself and more
CRy it out when you are trapped
ThEre's more to life, an open door
TirEd though you often have napped
You Don't need to worry a moment longer
Eyes Open, look up and take a sip of air
Fresh Morning, fresh start, feel stronger

Burden Of tyranny washed away and gone
Simpler Few words could hardly feel wrong

How is a Fine melody made of this mess?
Will love Offer these words to your lips
Where sorRow has found its bitter caress?
Why not Grin through it, put hands on your hips?
Who is Ignorant of the internal strife?
What eVer does it take to say it bold and straight
When Everyone else grabs the knife?
FrieNds aren't the ones who cheer on the hate
RelEase the pain, there is yet another way
DeSpair can be vanquished, a soul mended
AS words escape your lips,"I forgive you today."
