Silent Apology

There it is, the glassy-eyed stare; Followed by hours of silence, nothing left to share. So very quiet now, I can hear the light bulbs hum; Pride shuts down our vocal cords, but our words are just playing dumb. Who will outlast who? For god only knows what prize; To the victor go the spoils, It's really just a lie, No apologies are whispered, as i gently stroke her face; forgiveness finally fills our hearts, yes it's love moving in god''s grace.

For some of us it took years to let go of anger, for some a constant anger due to constant abuse and/or constant betrayal. But once you let go, once you work to constantly hold on to that ability to forgive ...then it becomes so much easier. You words bring peace Carl :)

This is a very special moment you have shared. Actions are sometimes the most healing when the words Elude us.
