Poetry & Self-Awareness

You say you want me to forgive you

But you can’t even forgive yourself

I’ll forgive you in vain

Erasing all my pain

Just like that, you still not knowing how to act

…

When I forgive, I feel alive

When you forgive, it doesn’t come from within

You want witnesses and want to put up a show

I don’t need that, I heal alone

…

How can I forgive you, if you feel like you didn’t do anything wrong?

You’re okay acting like that all day long

You’re playing games and I’m not playing along
