So easy to utter
So hard to try….

Yet from God we expect
But His command we disrespect

Revenge sounds better
It’s a bliss to blast your hater
But what God wants from us….
Does it matter?

I am In a turmoil
I stand between my hate and His Grace…

I have a choice to make….but I just can’t seem to face…

I was hurt, humiliated and damaged to the core
By a heartless ruthless and a third class whore….

By then I was broken, I wish for myself I had spoken…alas but all I did was to embrace silence…

Karma took over and she paid a high price….now at the mercy of endless hurdles ..her world lies….so God did justify my cries….

Then why do I find it hard to accept with ease
That Elevated in the eyes of God is he who forgives….
