Hiding Inside Myself (Kenny Rankin)

you must accept the terms it offers you.

Have I Forgiven This Man?

Have I really learned to forgive?

I thought I have

But today I came face to face

With one of the men

Who caused us our grief

Five years ago...

When he walked into the room

I knew right away that

This was the moment 

I've long waited for

Here he was on a table next to ours

At a party hosted by James' cousin...

The man who caused our grief

In the same room with me

My mind raced, my heart skipped a beat

I searched my soul for answers

A lump formed in my throat

Have I really forgiven this man?

have i really forgiven this man?

Travelling Through Life (Haiku)

As I take a step

Towards the unknown future

I go forth bravely

With you by my side

A reassuring presence...

Nothing scares me now

Together we shall

Tread the path that awaits us-

A whole new journey
