What Life Has Taught Me

Certain people will hurt you repeatedly
Just because they can
But he who continues forgiving and loving them 
Regardless of injury proves to be the greater man

I think you like E.E. Cummings, and the way he writes. Well your poems remind me of his anyway. When I first read this poem something in me liked it, and I still do. Now, I want to get into a philisophical discussion with you over the subject. But anyway, good job...
