Liberate Me

I could wish every curse onto
The beings that wounded me
That their egoism would come back
Upon them in threefold consequence

I could recite every misdeed
Evoke every hurt
Reiterate every tale of malevolence

Instead, I choose to forgive
The beings that wounded me

To remove their poisonous darts
Imbedded within my heart
And return that venom with love

I shed their cruelty like a coat of skin
And step into the sunlight
Choosing the path of peace instead of revulsion
Embracing grace and liberating me…
