Twisted Forgiveness

This poem is about relationships and how hard it can be to undo or forgive transgressions of the heart.
~skr~

In twisted forgiveness I etch my tears in stone
The vagueness of your shadow... carved here in my bones
Inside the hollowness, halls of echoes chant
I cry for attention and hear you say, "I can't"
"I don't think I have...not sure it's what you need"...
And every time I hear it...I bleed and bleed and bleed
Its a way of saying forgive me ...for you are who I love
Just let go of wondering and let us fly above
When courage comes to let it loose...just turn and walk away
If only you would do this, but you decide to stay
If only knowing that this love was safe , secure and home
Its too much for mere thinking... a chore not likely done
You heave with love so deeply and then my heart just runs
I miss you every minute and cry when you are gone
You fight yourself with guilt for me, sweet man that I adore
You say you can't and once again this love becomes your chore
Because you love completely, you confuse just what is here
Accept it just for what its worth and reap without the tears
Let it blossom then ... sit back or give it the release
Do something for my breaking heart and give our love it's peace.

In my life, I've found it's
better for me to forgive, but I don't take
junk from people anymore. I like straight up honest people who can forgive back.
Great write..........

Forgiveness is so hard to give at times and even harder to understand.
