Forgiveness alludes me

from wounds long ago.

Like angry waves of hurt

I'm  tossed  to and fro.

My heart was broken,

Our family torn apart.

I can't find the place

forgiveness to start.

My heart was open

On our son's wedding day.

If I saw you with her

the pain might go away.

But you were a coward,

And would not show your face.

The willingness was gone;

Bitterness had taken it's place.

Of all my life's trials,

Forgiving you is the one

that's ever out of reach

I just can't get it done.
