Mistakes, Tried and True
Sinners go to the lord
Felons approach the court of law
Both await a fair judgement, one that could perhaps strike a chord
For neither wish to highlight their flaws
Many seek forgiveness
Some seek closure
The rest live worried about their wellness
The wronged begin to confer
Whether it is nobler to pardon the lost soul
Or to hold all our grudges, never seeking console
