Open Arms

Contributed by Jyssvw22 on Monday, 10th March 2014 @ 06:52:13 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



When it comes to forgiveness
I am determined to move on
Where faith is concerned
I am lost but still pray from afar
I remain indebted
To a master
I have regretted
Knelt besides beauty
Forged my way through hateful vengeance
I find myself
Where I began
In complete silence

As turmoil spins its convoluted script
A picture of clarity flashes across the screen of my mind
A peaceful image of smiles, happiness, laughter in a long ago time
Nothing was taken
I have shelved away the pieces
Hidden the secrets
Covered the bedspread
With lies
Deceitfulness
My pride
Buried with the rest of what was once good god and glory

Here in the heavens
Among the clouds and angels
The beauty returns
Truth and honor are superfluous
A stinging voice
One that can not be heard
Rather felt in the bones
Shakes me to my core
Brings me reprieve

Released from my shackles
Brought to my knees
Forgiveness is granted
And so it is received

Heck of a nice job! I think you have a diamond in the rough here. I hope you take some more time on this piece for editing....it is not there yet, but like a colt you just KNOW is a champ, so to is this poem. It just needs some growing.
Well done,
Invierno

This spilled out just right. I think a piece like this should be left alone, because it had the desired effect.
