Forgiveness
To forgive you
and what…
forget my beaten heart
But I cannot stand
with you
the same way
Last time we stood
together
you buckled my knees
And the weakest response
shifts the focus
rejects the focus
To forgive you
I will not
that is me, doing that
Our commonness
is full of holes
and torn and bloody
The thing we hold the dearest
lays untouched
in ultimate hope
I will not forgive you
ever
ever
I will carry your blows
all places
and in my silent sleep
I will carry your blows
and they will inform me
naked of obligation
I am more fierce because
your blows
forced me to know myself
Forgive,
they say…
Forgive.
Heal, I say
Heal
But do not forgive.
