ForGiving

Love is forgiving,

Not the taking.

For in receiving anything

One must give.

The choice is made,

All in favour of giving,

Say “I”.

I will forgive,

I will respect,

I will trust,

I will love.

I will get what I want,

Life does not come to me.

Life is there to be had

And the only way to be had

Is to give

To life

What life

Has given to me.

Opportunity.
