Rights of The Victim

Rights of the victim:

To forgive...
With a choice to remember,
And recall.
To feel embittered!
Especially if one still has life.

Since being victimized isn't easy to forget.
And to know that vindication,
Takes on a whole new meaning...
When God is involved.
And God has a way to handle all of it!

Being patient?
That is one's option.
But it is highly recommended!
It is best to leave such matters,
In the hands of The Creator!

Keep faith and know this...
No one could ever be that imaginative,
When it comes to inflicting upon another...
A lifetime of remorse and guilt!
