Poem -
Learning To Forgive Myself
Shrinking Space
On the skeletal closet
Where dusty bones
Reanimate themselves to
Escaping demons,
Pushing the back of my lips
And tickling the tongue
Hard isn't an expression
To keep from opening my mouth
Setting words of truth on the run.
The more stored
This plague ignored
Ebola like, liquifying inside sin
Liable to eat up everything within,
Believe it true
God the merciful forgives you
An act through life only time can tell
Whether it's worth forgiving oneself.

Forgiveness to the wrongs that cause us some certain people is far more important to forgive oneself from that OK to forgive us for something when we do not forgive those who cause a bad? There is a time for forgiveness and a time to forget those who hurt us.
All say and do bad things when we are hurt, but it is much more effective than forgive us for say or do apologize to the aggrieved person.
An excellent work that as all compositions of Devon is... but very well written.
A greeting to all.
Thanks Lucas for the wonderful comment hope you had a Merry Christmas and a happy new year. My biggest line in the poem that I say to myself and others that seek forgiveness especially when seeking it from God, the hard part is figuring out how to forgive yourself for the things you know you did and where wrong. Much love and respect to you good sir

Hi Devon, I perfectly understand the essence of the poem, but I personally think that when she is make minor mistakes over time one ends forgiving, but there are evil people who do not feel remorse for their actions and that not ask never forgiveness by nothing and no one.
Those who know how to forgive those who cause them damage usually also know to forgive his mistakes.
A greeting.
That is a good point Lucas, those that often ask for forgiveness for their sins do feel remorse and can be forgiven in time, but even if people are forgiven and they ask gor forgiveness from God sometimes that shame can linger on making it harder for people to live with the guilt of things they have done. This is the point I was driving for but I know my words speak differently to everybody and I would never tell somebody their wrong, but this in my opinion a very debatable subject.
