Forgive them if they slight you for the faith which you believe forgive them if they know it all and flatter to deceive forgive them if they think that faith is a mind of fantasy forgive them for they seek to fill all thats eternally empty forgive them if they call you mad their sanity has it's bounds forgive them if they seek to shoot with empty secular rounds forgive them if they see their god as a measure of material gain forgive them if they start to laugh and smirk to hide the pain forgive them for it's death they fear the dark besets the end forgive them for they envy you and still cant comprehend forgive them as they're human only so far they can see the gateway to a mind at peace and you have the key.

Very nicely written. We must forgive those who do not understand our faith, whatever religion we have chosen for ourselves. The peace that can come from faith is enviable indeed. Thank you for sharing this with us.
