Forgiveness
Nothing is as painful,
as unforgiveness to the soul;
A heart that's torn asunder,
with forgiveness becomes whole.

A single kind word spoken
means more than countless words;
The three words, "I forgive you,"
Are all that need be heard.

To a soul that has been wounded,
like a healing, cooling balm;
Forgiveness soothes and comforts,
Till at last the soul is calm.

For the soul that seeks forgiveness,
when forgiveness can't be found;
It struggles vainly everyday,
To hear that simple sound.

The power in those three kind words,
can heal a heart that's broken;
But that heart cannot begin to heal,
as long as words remain unspoken.

Compassion in it's purest sense,
reside in those three words;
The three words, "I forgive you,"
are all that need be heard.
