Poetry: Forgiveness

by Darren James Clayton

Created on: October 14, 2008

Forgetting to forgive.

You have forgotten me.

All the pain,

The sorrow,

The aches of heart

You suppressed unto me.

When I needed your love most,

You walked away in haste

As the eyes of the world shut.

My voice muted.

You turn to me,

Without hesitation,

Seeking my words, my help.

Should I turn?

Should I run from your pain?

Should I smite you in anguish,

In your grief?

For a war?

But what does war bring

But death and depression?

I shall not hide.

I shall not bring that

Kiss of death unto you.

I shall forgive.

But only time will forget.
