Not Who You Are

Never wish them pain Never have that thought lying on your brain, And never be part of a bad memoir Because, that is not who you are. Never wish them hurt Don't hope good things from them will desert, Even though they did you bad For their joy and happiness be always glad. Never wish them to be blue Because they have lied or used you, If they have hurt you just forgive them Don't look for sadness or to be grim. Never wish them a sadness Always wish them Joy and a gladness, Never give them pity or shame Now happily look at who you became. If they had caused you pain It's because inside of them a hurt does rain, Give them help and love and a happy feeling Always wish them joy and healing. Randy L. McClave
