Forgiveness is not something we do for other people.
We do it for ourselves, to get well and move on.
We do it for ourselves, to get well and move on.
Three years and three months.
That's how long we have been stuck to one another,
Doing assignments and projects together.
Friendships forged and friendships broken.
Kind words were given; harsh words were spoken.
Not contributing, cheating, backstabbing,
Rumour-mongers among other things.
A misunderstanding hurt both parties
Like a seed, it grew into a poison tree,
That spread branches left and right,
To be cut down one needs will and might
Forgive and forget is needed to make things right.
Yesterday like brothers, today like strangers.
Let's not let it continue.
Let's cut down the barrier,
Let's be the first to extend the hand,
Let's forgive the one who wrong us,
Let's reach to the one who's been hurt,
Let's learn that each is different
and the way we think, and work is different.
Naturally there'd be differences.
So respect the person, forgive the act.
Let God be the judge
Onto those talk bad things behind our backs.
Let God be the judge
Onto those who instigate quarrels
and wear a innocent face before all.
Instead
Let us be His angels of mercy
Heal our own souls
By extending the hand of forgiveness
To those who have hurt us
Unintentionally or intentionally.
Say what is needed to be said
And move on.
Time is too short
To continue holding grudges.
Time is too short
To continue being hurt.
Let it go
Let it fly away, like a moth with wings.
Be happy.
Be joyful.
Be thankful.
That we've learnt to be a better person
mentally, psychologically and spiritually
within these long years.
p/s: I hereby declare that I have forgiven all 50 pkpg tesol members who may have intentionally or unintentionally wronged me during these 3 years and 3 months, and that I do not hold any grudge against them. I also seek forgiveness from anyone who may have been angry with me, whom I may have unintentionally hurt through my words or my actions. Do come and seek me out if you are still unsatisfied and angry, and we'll have a heart-to-heart talk.
May God bless each and everyone of us.

The best poem I have read since the last three and a half years. Much memories with this unique group, where our magnanimous age gap ranges from 25 - 42. Will not forget everyone but their sins.
