Pain of Forgiving
Tears of a shattered heart, quietly slipping unheard to a cold pillow.
Why? The question ricochets through long suppressed pain.
The trust of love given freely, the trust that dangles by a whisper.
A mind willing to mesh the truth with a lie to spare a fragile heart.
As mind and soul begin the treacherous journey to forgive,
The heart forgives the mind proceeds at a pace held back by reality
