Forgive...

An impact a thought, word or an act makesLeaves a deep scar, to heal great effort it takes

Not an easy job for a wound of the past to patch
All good deeds go by but a single bad one our mind may catch

The memories of helpful days are soon forgotten in time
Why shouldn't those good things stay but a petty crime

To err is human but to forgive they say is divine
Find a fault of other is easy but couldn't be mine

In fact its tough to say those two very straight and simple words
'Its okay' and even tougher to mean em from your heart of hearts

Even the so called mythical golden heart of the fable 
Is rarely strong enough to forget and forgive yet be able

A grudge can be carried for generations to come along 
It becomes an evil inheritance to the next for none their wrong

Wasn't it a mere grudge of families that killed Romeo and his beloved 
Wouldn't there be happily ever after had they thrown the grudge off their head

Its a mighty task to erase that memory that hurt you
To get it off your conscience and smile at the sky so blue

Ego is the root cause, they say it aloud
Everyone has to an extent no one less proud

Its just theory to give up ego not a steady practical
True it hurts a lot and pains but no use being always vertical

I need to bend and take a curve for its my good
To embrace with open arms and finally drop the hood

I have tried it a billion times but each in vain
But its the billion plus one say to end the pain

Oh! I ask 'Haven't I ever hurt a soul ever?'
Yes says a small voice infact many times over

So yes all deserve a chance to start afresh
Simply a smile entangles you from the viscious mesh

In the end you die taking no attaches with you
So why think, ponder and grimace over a silly thing small as dew
