Forgive and Forget

Most will forgive,

But few will forget

When their ire is inspired to arise.

That wrinkle of gray

Placed deep in the brain

Is implanted forever. It shows in our eyes.

 

The soul is reflective in kindness and means.

It leans toward benevolent trends.

But the mind in its memory

Doesn't forget;

Like a cut where the scar never mends.

 

But it's the forgiving

That bodes in importance.

Without it we dwell in regret.

But if we forgive;

If we truly forgive,

We don't really need to forget.
