Did you ever get down on your knees
and ask God " Oh, please, please?"
I know he hears my hearts lament
and hears my plans for good intent
Just want forgiveness so bad
for whatevers making my heart sad
Was it something I did in yesteryear?
Thinking of all the things, I shed a tear
I've done some things I can't take back
Forgiveness of self is what I lack
The Lord will give me Hope and strength
Only He knows my trials and their length
I feel lost in the wilderness of life
Just so young to feel hopelessness and strife
Just want to smile and laugh again
Only He knows what a trial it's truly been

A fine and true write Christina. Erm, I'm going to say the opposite almost to D - reaching out to One outside of ourselves for help. Or if looking within, looking to His Spirit within us for His help.
Thanks so much orchidee for your wonderful reply! I really appreciate it and your kind advice.
Such a beautiful story of repentance.
Thank you very much Shadowbox!

Forgiving yourself is always the hardest to do especially if you continue to re-live your guilt. Let go of your guilt Christina and then forgiveness will be within reach. Beautifully expressed poem.
Thank you so much AP. I appreciate your kind advice! And the compliment. Thanks again!!
In this life we do many things that we regret but God does not bear grudges, we need to accept these things ourselves and then move on, the future is always bright, move forward towards the light.
Good strong write Christina, you are in my prayers.
Thanks so much GF for the prayers and the advice. I appreciate it more than you know!
Christina,
Your well written poem is so relatable! It resonates loud and clear! I know it must be difficult, but you have to find the strength to forgive yourself! Only then you will find peace and live your life to the fullest!
I wish you all the best!
