To Forgive or Forget?
Forgiveness. What does that word mean? Does it mean choosing to shrug off the pain of the past? Or the deliberate turning of face, to look into a different direction? Is it the tired sigh of resignation, To make room for the hope of a better future? Or is it the stubborn denial that, what feel like shards in your chest Exist no longer? Is it the sign of a bigger man? Or reconciliation with the fact that your expectations lie shattered, Only to be trampled past and forgot? Is forgiveness, the feeling that seeps in, surreptitiously into your dreams Knowing that you won't allow it in the daylight? Or is it just peace, borne out of habit?
