Perhaps forgetting is a form of forgiveness

What’s something you’ve forgiven but haven’t forgotten?

Perhaps forgetting is a form of forgiveness ,

Letting go of anger is to yourself a kindness,

Holding a grudge can makes things worse,

It’s like a cruel insidious and hurtful curse,

So what if they never intended to give you that rise,

And the promises were all just petty lies,

You know I can laugh at it now but at the time,

I resented their smugness and thought them slime,

Now I realise it was just a circumstance,

They had no money and had to take that stance,

Did it really crush me they broke a promise,

No it made me see strength in being autonomous,

Where are they now those people who hurt me?

Living their lives quite happily minus me.

Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏
