It’s hard to forgive

But best to forget

When faced with a challenge

That will leave you broken

Forgiveness builds you up

And gives you room to grow

While grudges tear you down

And your happiness will slow

Guilt and grudges build a palace of their own

Leaving you a hollow shell

With no soul

Just skin and bone

Forgiveness is hard

But what’s hard towards the start

Is better than

Withstanding anger that tears you apart
