.|Forgive Me|.

One of my favorite poems~ Old but I still love it~ Please enjoy~

I weave my world through the eye of a needle.

And gently sew closed the wounds of my past.

And, though they burn with unshed tears,

They have kept me from repeating such mistakes.

 

For hurting another for the sake of hurting.

A thread made from the love I have received.

For hating when joy was given.

A thread filled with all gentle caresses.

For taking that which I didn't need.

A thread holding my tears of joy.

 

So many wounds, both given and taken.

Is there hope to close them all before the end?

I feel sorrow for the wounds I've made.

The pain and suffering caused by my hands.

 

Given the chance, I would like to change my mistakes.

Make good on unfulfilled promises and forgotten oaths.

But such things can never be erased.

Only mended, like an old patchwork cloak.

some say let bygones be bygones but is it easy when the scars are there to remind you of past mistakes?
how wonderful it would be to be able to go back and undo the harm one has caused!
a beautiful write, crafted with a lot of feeling.
