Forgiveness Poem

Does your love to me belong?

Forgiveness

© Jason Swindle
Baby you tell me you love me,
You tell me you care,
You say you need to have me,
But all I can do is stare.

You treated me with hate,
You told me a lot of lies,
For me it may be to late,
For my eyes are full of despise.

I am trying to let it go,
Trying to deal with it all,
My love is hard to show,
When it’s him that you may call.

You say you’ve learned a lot,
You say you know you were wrong,
Don’t let me put you on the spot,
Does your love to me belong?

My feelings you tried to taunt,
Our life you left in tatters.
Our family is what I want,
Our family is all that matters.

Just give to me your heart,
I promise I will not break,
Forgiveness is a start,
Something that must not wait.

Now give to me a shot,
To make us happiest of all,
Cause I will give you all I’ve got,
My love for you shall not fall.

My girlfriend cheated on me and I am touched because you must have had the same thing happen to you and I feel like our time isn't done. I can forgive no matter what and that it is a process but its possible. thanks it really helped me

This was intense and meant a lot to me. I did a search for poems about forgiveness because I had more than one affair while my husband and I were separated. Although we were separated, he was torn to pieces. I have done all I can to assist him with healing, but the reality is that he must learn to forgive and WANT to forgive. I can not push him, but I must also understand my actions have created a pain that I may never know. This poem opened my eyes.
Thank you!
