finding forgiveness

forgiveness
is an odd thing.

it takes a long time to forgive
someone

you've grown to hate.
to let down

your anger,
your ego

and stop beating 
what's in your wake.

but you do.
you forgive yourself first

as you go through
the stages of grief,

and then

those
who did harm to you.

it often comes late, but at
last
it comes

and you're free of your
past mistakes.
