Forgive

Forgive, while your heart aches in your chest

Forgive, while your wounds bleed to your death

Forgive, while your rage soars in a daze

Forgive, while your tears flood you in a haze

Forgive

It will save you

It will keep you humane

Forgive, while they dehumanize you

Forgive, while they steal all from you

Forgive, while they deny you

Forgive, while they ignore you

Forgive

It will empower you

It will keep you sane

Forgive to keep yourself.

Maha Bawab Tourbah

It’s that voice in my head. It needs a place to vent, and a space to invent.
