The Never-Ending Mile

How I went back to my sexual abuser's house and forgave him of what he did to me. He had already been dead for a long time though. The New,elderly couple that lived there invited me in for a soda and let me talk for a while.

Today I exercised my brain!
I took a never-ending mile
walk to my neighbor's house.
Thoughts of fear haunted my mind,
A child again, I cannot go home
AGAIN!
Seeing the house, once a sweet
home-then a dungeon of horrors.
This time though, no fear I feel!
No pain to care!
Forgive you I did, Forgive I cannot,
The molestation & other things
were just too much!
Now I can look to my youth once again
And remember some good for the pain
IS GONE!
