Analysis of Forgiving The Doer's Misdeeds



People who now to have awakened.
Wide of eyes and minds to clear.
Realizing misdeeds done to others,
Remains with them to stay effective.
Never from their minds to disappear.
Are the ones who quickly believe,
An apology expressed.
Should be immediately forgiven.
But...
Who is it that benefits,
From a pain felt to feel not to feel it felt?
The doer?
Or the receiver?
Even horrific nightmares,
Are not remembered to reminisce.
As quick as a pain inflicted by someone else.
Intended and meant to choose done to do!
To later expect...
A forgiveness to them given.
Repeatedly heard to hear again.
Over and over.
Until the forgiveness to give it done,
Becomes less significant...
Than the time and place,
A pain to remember is not allowed to forget!
