I've forgiven you for tearing my heart apart
Pretending to be someone you're not
For swearing eternal love then torturing me with your unique cruelty
I've forgiven myself for believing the performance... the promises
For seeing capacity in you that will never be realized
Wasting my precious life force on someone so undeserving
You never actually asked for my forgiveness
And yet once again, I am giving you something from my heart....
That perhaps you do not deserve....

The weak cannot forgive. Forgiveness is one attribute of the strong. Mahatma Gandhi
It was much harder to forgive myself....that was the true accomplishment. Compassion for oneself is SO much harder. Why is that?
We will never be WE again. Maybe WE never were....except in my mind and heart.....and in the poetry of dreams....
