A Shadowed Heart Poem by Dianna Nally

It's hard for anyone to forgive
Especially if they have suffered a loss
But can a person go on with their life
With a shadowed heart?
You can't forgive the one who broke your heart
until you can't forgive your self.
And a burden this heavy can only tare you apart.



Have you ever done something that hurt another
And expected them to be able to forgive?
It's hard to sleep or concentrate
And that makes it a hard life to live.

There are so many reasons to lay guilt on someone Else's lap
If you ever expect to have a clear conscience
Stop blaming others and take your own rap.


No one should have to live a life
With a darkness in their heart
So open up, and let someone in
Before it tares you apart.
