Obviating need to forgive

first stirred expectation, then denial shroud of negativity, a dark cloud betrayed we reacted, soul contracted shattered was our heart that once stood so proud feeling alone, despondent and forlorn as chance had it, we were stung by a bee this happenstance was divine grace of course for through searing pain, clear truth we could see in the case of the bee, no angst arose for though it hurt us, it knew no better so accepting the bee, just as it was our heart felt not that it was our debtor now, if the bee is placed in human form its appearance will change but not instinct so the flaw is in us, the way we look our ego not yet with love and light inked conjuring a script of expectations deluded ego dwells in the shallows know oh hermit, if we indulge therein sorrow will lead our soul to the gallows accepting all as of evolution we embrace and release, as does the breeze head and heart entwined, there’s no confusion equal in joy and pain, flowing with ease
