Forgiveness



To forgive is a gift to give with no intentions,
A wonder of how we achieve such impressions,
To give a word without resentments,
Just to learn surrender in a better sense,
How may we forgive without forgetting,
To live and learn without regretting,
In a sense become a better person we once were,
To deter the last insincerity of uncertainty of worth,
Do we narcisstically impress upon others?
Or do we avoidantly repress from others?
With sincerity to learn without oppressing another,
The importance of companionship with no intent of expectant bother,
How may we sit in discussion together,
Without resenting the insecurity to express upon another,
When we became one without trying to fit in at all,
Especially professing a platonic love with no expectancy of a call,
Even a touch was no insecurity in what we had instilled,
From our parents so lovingly and wonderfully fulfilled,
Inevitably, I suppose, fate may have a different goal,
A goal that we may learn to better suit us all.
