It Festers And Grows.


They say it festers and grows,
And it's harmful to the mind,
But how can we let go hurt like that,
When no forgiveness can we find!

Not everything can be forgiven that's true,
For life's so complex you see,
Just because it may be easy for you,
May not be so easy for me…

But to let it fester it lives on and on,
And before we realize…
It's eaten away at the goodness,
Now that isn't very wise!

So I have learnt a new lesson just lately,
And that lesson I will apply…
No more the bad thoughts, only good ones,
No more heartbroken tears will I cry…

I was told that things get better,
But I just couldn't see it for me,
Then one day I came to understand,
Forgiveness had to be…

So I forgave and then I moved forward,
Straight ahead into the light,
Now the sun shines on my face,
No more the darkness of the night.

...It Festers And Grows, If We Let It...
