Beauty of Forgiveness

You hit my hypnotic heart so very hard it wreathes on the afflicted scattered shards carried in the blue veins by the boiling blood that turns into a torrent of unseen tears. Don’t be scared, be assured, I won’t react my mind forgets the sudden blow on the chin for my eroded memory I’ve made so porous it lets the sands of the past slip through. My psyche recovered from the arctic sea I will expose to your burning conscience enfolding your inflamed spell of unfair rage in the glacier of remorse your soul will freeze. I will drown my resentment in the sea of pity you will find a new placid me sailing on a boat filled with the flowers of kindness to your shore the beauty of forgiveness your will then perceive.

Oh wow! I find all of your poems so compelling, this is a fine example. The stoicism described is heartbreaking.... Last boat stanza particularly riveting. A very solidly told tale. Congratulations, Subimal!
