I wrote this after I broke up with my ex-boyfriend. I felt a lot of hurt from what his mother did to me. She hurt me so much... But I realized that the right thing to do was to forgive her... And God helped me do that.
"But I say to you, love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them who spitefully use you, and persecute you." ~Matthew 5:44
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Even though you ruined my life...
I forgive you.
Even though you broke my heart into a million pieces...
I forgive you.
You caused me all this hurt,
But I still forgive you.
I forgive you for everything you did.
Everything you made me feel.
Everything you said.
For all the tears you made me cry...
I forgive you.
God helped me fight through it.
He helped me to forgive you.
He gave me the strength.
I pray for you all the time.
Hoping that you'd be forgiving.
Just like I forgave you.
But yet...
You still are not...
It breaks my heart to see you so troubled.
I wish I could help you.
But I hope and pray you fight through it just like I did.
I forgive you... And that's all that matters.
I'm a better person because if it.
And the next time I see you,
I'll just look and smile.
Because I came out stronger in the end.
