Forgive me, for I have sinned, forgotten my debt, <br />For I betrayed you, closest friend, and your sweet longing trust, <br />Your curse befell my painful soul, and thunder strike my lust, <br />For they may kill and seek revenge, but not with hate, not yet. <br />Shall my deeds, and my crimes, see your vengeance black, <br />While craving to go back in time, <br />To wipe my wretched track, <br /> <br />I beg you, hear me and say, 'forgiven my friend, ' <br />And rest your hands on shoulders weak, and follow me abroad, <br />More lies I spoke to fake the truth, more foolish acts of fraud, <br />A cold and deadly stabbing foe, no friend forgets nor mend, <br />But my friend, please forgive, call me friend, again, <br />For heart had gone astray and mad, <br />To leave you, friend, in pain. <br /> <br />And gone far, the talks and dreams, resenting the fact, <br />Your friendship worthy more than gold, in hours, in fearful night, <br />From you I seek the friendship lost, unfold its grace and light, <br />from you I wait the welcome sign, for eager heart to act, <br />And my friend, my long friend, from the mate, I seek <br />Again a trust to walk beside, <br />To trust my soul, all week. <br />©Anees Rahman<br /><br />Anees Rahman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/forgive-me-my-friend/
