Forgiven, such a strange emotion. Can I release the anger, the hurt? Is it fair to give that back to the world, when it was all meant for me? Can I just let it go.. let you go.. so you are forgiven? Is trying futile? Will I feel free after freeing my heart from the feelings you gave me? So much pain; the confusion alone crushed me. Why did I deserve the treatment I received from someone who was supposed to care so much? Why am I still full of so many questions? I miss the nights fireside, burning up all over even after I drifted away from the heat of the fire. I miss the hot breath and the opened hearts. I still feel the impact, the importance, of the secrets shared. I long for the comfort of your understanding. But forgiven? It still hurts. I still ache. I will hold this with me always, I will take the weight. You are free. You are forgiven.
