FORGIVENESS
FORGIVENESS
They say that I should have forgiven
Well, maybe could instead of should
Such generosity of spirit is rare in me
I am at heart, a somewhat cold entity
If I were able to forgive, well I would
Perhaps in Church I should be shriven
It takes time for my annoyance to fade
As I am after all, a very sensitive soul
Yet others seem to forgive and forget
But deep inside they’re seething, I bet
Surely mutual understanding is the goal
Maybe it takes time to make the grade
An insult will sting but it can be worse
Maybe I lack a sufficient absorbency
But why should I just take the blows
My righteous position surely shows
Demand an apology and then we’ll see
But to just buckling under, I am averse
