Forgive me for what I have been
Forgive the written lies, the spoken deceptions
Forgive what has been forgotten so long before
I can take no more of the darkness hidden inside
Heaven on earth is non-existant
And this cannot justify the means of my heart
Forgive the weighing of the dreams
Forgive what I have no longer seen
Forgive me myself!
I won't be long for this world if I cannot see
What truth lies in between the darkness and the light
Now that I know the darkest side of me
The love of oneself cannot justify the pain
It cannot see you through the times
Truth will set you free, it will untie the noose
Forgive me the cruelty of the beast inside
Forgive the veil that divides the dreams
Forgive what I cannot give to you

I did the stream of consciousness. And it turned out it was a letter to myself about something I would change. So that would count as three categories? 
And possibly four if you count me listening to The Truth Beneath the Rose by Within Temptation while blasting this out...

This is really deep. I think that a lot of people need to take a look at themselfs in this way at times. I know I have had to, great work on this. The pain can be feltt in this for what ever you did that made you look at yourself. SH
