Forgiveness

The mercy of another

What is mercy without tolerance?

What is forgiveness without love?

You must love someone to truly forgive

You must love all

Love unconditionally without malice

Love someone who does not deserve it

Let love be your guiding principle in life

Because without love, there is nothing

For it is love that has brought us together

And love that has kept us close

Those without continue to flail helplessly

And drown in their own hatred

They sink in their own resentment 

Without the intention to change

Yet they persist to wonder why nothing has

Be that of someone who learns to swim

Let the hopes and dreams of your own faults be the drive of your forgiveness

So that you may let the your love flow like the continuous thrumming of your heart

And keep forgiving
