In Due Time

Relinquish your bitterness,
Else you’ll be drinking the poison
meant for your enemy
Don’t be the next victim,
eaten alive

stop the chatter inside your head,
else you’ll be disconnected
out of focus,
needing to be realigned

for too long ,
you’ve awakened
many a sleepless night,
ever chasing after
the reason why

yet take a moment,
a step back,
was it  grace that erased your past?
And mercy that saw you repentant,
Can you  forgive them?
That doesn’t mean acceptance,
Or justifying their crime.
God will bring justice
In due time
