Forgiveness

Hating on someone,
that's easy.
Forgiving on that someone
is hard to do.

How can forgiving be so hard?
Well how can I forgive that person?
That one I always hate
from the face to the name.

The actions that knock me down
were performed by that person.
Made me from crying to moving
to rejecting to hating.

Maybe I thought
that I can let out all of this anger in me
by hating so I will
feel the happiness again.

This anger and hatred
kept getting bigger.
Then it was produced
as a routine for my life.

Wake up,
hate, hate, hate,
eat, hate some more,
then go to sleep.

The feeling kept getting stronger,
and stronger and stronger.
So strong that I forgot
the good things in loving.

Then it took over me.
I have to solve it.
By how?
How?

"Forgiveness"
people told me,
"Forgiveness can me you feel better."
Now why and how?

Why forgiveness, the good,
can be performed on that person,
who made my life
a living hell?

Then I learned
once I started to forgive,
my anger will reduced,
big time.

"I forgive you."
I thought in my head.
That one doesn't have to have the knowledge
but I have the knowledge that I can move on.
