What is forgiveness, truly defined?
A chance to prove one's worth aligned
A plea to be forgiven, free from sin's stain
Without judgement's weight, repeated in vein
The purest of hearts, with intention true
Seeks forgiveness, and a chance to anew
To right the wrong, and mend the tear
And prove themselves, without a speck of fear
But forgiveness isn't always given free
A rejection harsh, without a second see
Leaves the heart bleeding, with a deep despair
A longing for a second chance, to show they care
What is forgiveness, when the heart is pure and bright?
When pleas for mercy, are met with endless night?
Is it not a chance, to prove one's worth anew?
A second chance, to rise, and see forgiveness shine through?
