Forgiveness Is Divine
Some people view forgiveness
As a virtue for the weak.
An act of mercy undeserved,
That serves no useful need.
Forgiveness in a relationship of love is essential. We all make mistakes and we must make amends and fix the relationship. There is a certain sadness in breaking the illusion of the perfect relationship. However, for those that pass the hurdle of forgiveness, they will find that their relationship is stronger and more meaningful than ever before. Before the first fight, the relationship is like a fragile egg. Once that illusion is broken the relationship becomes much stronger. You become aware that your relationship can survive a disagreement.

Hi Pat,
I was so pleased to wake this morning and find one of your poems. Everything you write comes from your heart. I have commented to you before of how I enjoy your poems and I feel...

How could it be that we let our love fall?
There were times in our life that we had it all.
As the weather got colder, my attention did shift,
but I could never be ready for this.
My heart aches, my eyes fill with tears as my world falls apart around me, as I realize how people hurt one another without a thought of how lasting the scars will be. Where is the...
As much as we argue,
As much as we fight,
We always turn it around by the end of the night.
I know how you feel. I've been in a relationship with my girlfriend for 2 1/2 years. There have been good times and bad times, as in any relationship. I've made a lot of mistakes, and she...

I'm sorry for hurting you, like the way I do
I'm sorry for the hurtful things I always say to you
We know the fight will never last
but still the amount they do
I am sorry, sorry for hurting you so much. Sorry for doing things that I should not have done, said what l was not supposed to say but whatever it is cannot be taken back. However, l just...
Being sorry can be very hard when we're overwhelmed with pride,
But sometimes our pride must take a fall before we lose out.
And when we have to say sorry, we should mean it from our soul.
A meaningless sorry is like a broken promise to the heart.
This poem was sent to me by my best friend, a person I literally grew up with as a teenager and eventually married at the age of 23. After ten years of marriage (2016), one day my children...
My mind racing in confusion,
so scared to speak a word.
My mouth starts to move,
but a word was unheard.
My wife and I are going through a "break," and it's tearing me up inside. I have a hard time expressing what I want to say, mixed with some memory failure, so that makes it even harder. Your...

Wiping away the tears, as memories flood into view.
Through the haze I glance at parts of me you never knew.
Lost in the fog of doubt and constant regret,
For thirteen years hid the real us from when we first met.
My words were not that of a kind person.
Hurtful words that should have never entered my mind
But they did, and they can be erased in time.
I have hurt my boyfriend a week ago. I know he said it is okay, but I feel bad every time I think of how I have brought tears into his eyes. I should only be making him smile. If there are...
I knew that this would happen,
that you would break my heart.
It was stupid of me not to listen.
I was stupid from the start.
One month ago, I caught my fiancé out with another man. She spent the night with him but swears she was sick and nothing happened. We had a blow up and she admitted having slept with two guys...
Tears rolled down her cheeks,
for she was betrayed again.
Her heart shrunk, yes.
She felt the pain.
He left me for a year. I loved him the same. I waited for him to come back. He came back. He broke my heart again. He wasn't sorry. He made it look like it was my fault. He mocked me. He...
