Forgiveness

4-19-04





I always forgive



(I'd advise you not to do it so easily)



It's just so much easier



To hold the anger than standing alone



Perhaps instead I enjoy being used



I'm somewhat a masochist



Perhaps I enjoy being stabbed



By hateful words



And thoughtless actions



That drive me to a knife I call my own.

This poem has a tremendous depth and resonance, and that last line is really, really powerful!
