The Road to Redemption (Poetry)

Everyday we struggle to survive the odds No matter how much troubles and pains, things get so bad We make mistakes along the way, We said words we did not mean to say We hurt people and even our own self for a long time We regret those sufferings we caused, and we managed to look fine In our present life we want to move on But the past keeps on haunting usĀ  Trying to get the best of what we are, nobody we can trust We look back and feel how bad it has been Wanting so much to find a way to redeem Time had left us torn and wounded But the truth would never make us dumb-founded The road may long, narrow and grassy Our heart will guide us and the sun soon becomes shiny God has taught us to forgive the way He does He even offered His life and His Kingdom as a plus Let us not also forget that we must learn to forgive others Forgive our faults as well because that is all that matters Life is too short to waste it in regret and desperation There are moments that we must spend for jubilation The road to redemption may long, narrow and grassy and seems so endless Just believe in your heart because in there you will find goodness.

Yes there should be forgiveness but persons shouldn't allow individuals to cause mistreatment. God knows what to do. He'll administer the discipline when they're misbehaving.
