In Conclusion
I forgive you,
Though you never asked me to.
I hold no contempt,
Nor any ill intent.
I give you my blessing,
Take from it a lesson.
I release myself from anger,
Free with honest candor.
It is done with sincerity,
Wishes for your health and prosperity.
Although you may never know,
I choose to let it go.
If our path should ever reconvene,
Due to circumstances unforeseen.
I will smile and say good day,
As I continue on my way.
It is not for me to keep score,
Or expect answers for.
I refuse to hold this grudge,
Or take it upon myself to judge.
It was another time and place,
Now only a memory trace.
With repose it is finished,
May your peace be replenished.
