To forgive is to suffer

Throughout our time
A thought escapes us
To enforce a word, no
Holding on to pain it may seem to some

The easy way to say OK
Twist your knife a little deeper
Words to sharp actions dark
Hide the blade of the deceiver

Enforce the words no more, be free
Alone you might just find serenity

To forgive is to suffer
To accept another day we choose
To give away another piece of life
To forgive is to suffer

Once or twice is kind
Three or four is blind
It is not the end, yet a way to begin
The power of words both good and bad
