I forgave you that chilly October night, the moon peeping through my window as I write this with a small song in my heart.
I’d awaited for the day those words would slip through my lips like silk, “I forgive you.” That cavity in my heart has been filled and it didn’t come with rules or an insurance bill.
I forgave you for me, I honestly forgive you enough to count every droplet that makes up the sea, every grain of sand, enough to find twelve needles in a hundred haystacks— I forgive you.
The hurt
The shame
The longing
The tears
The fears and whatever was left in between i forgive you not with my heart but just as I loved you, with my soul.
I forgave you, and I wish you Godspeed.
