From Darkness to Light

I went from the son of the Devil, to a child in Christ, seeking grace. yet the shadows of my past linger, hatred etched deep in my heart's space.

Mom and Dad, your hands were cruel, Your words a never-ending storm. The pain you inflicted haunts my nights, a wound that refuses to transform.

In Christ, I found a beacon, a light to guide my way. But the hate for you still festers, eroding my peace each day.

Every memory is a dagger, twisting in my soul with spite. I yearn to forgive, to release the pain, to turn the wrongs into right.

Yet, it's hard to quell the fury, when the past is a relentless ghost. Each thought of you rekindles the fire of the childhood I needed the most.

You were supposed to protect me, to be my shelter, my guide. Instead, you became my torment, leaving scars I cannot hide.

I wrestle with my emotions, between the hate and the divine. Praying for strength to forgive, to sever the past's bitter vine.

For in Christ, I've found my solace, a love that seeks to heal. Yet, the journey to forgiveness is a battle deeply real.

I wish I could stop the anger, let go of the bitter past. To find peace in the present, and let my soul rest at last.

Mom and Dad, your legacy is heavy, a burden I strive to shed. From the son of the Devil to a child of Christ, seeking love in the life I've led.

In this struggle, I find my strength, In the hope that love will prevail. for every day I strive to forgive, Is a step towards breaking the jail.

So, I'll continue my journey, through the sorrow and the strife. From darkness into the light of Christ, seeking peace in a fractured life.
