Awakened

Forgiveness, a lost treasure

It’s worth, beyond measure

The flood within waits

Forgiveness opens the gates

There are lofty ideals

That the mind reveals

Tucked away is forgiveness

In its wake, is stillness

Forgiveness, it’s an altar

All we have, we offer

It empties pain and hurt

Freeing the mind of dirt

Forgiveness, when it stays

Barriers are set ablaze

Making us one and whole

Forgiveness bares the soul
