Poetry Series: Arriving At Forgiveness

I keep running away like forgiveness could never have a place,
everybody asks for this fast life, and they end up wanting.
no scratch that, they end up needing one thing.

Forgiveness.

to forgive yourself, is to love your self with strength, and belief in your ability to do so.
the day you fall in love with yourself, so will the world.

Thats what i knew,
but what if it really is in our heads.
what if i could cheat myself into forgiveness and still arrive at it.
cheat myself into forgiving you, and temporarily falling in love with who I am.

could you promise the tears could stop?

Pain, is my forgiveness.
I forgive by the hurt i inflict upon myself.
It is a payback system.

You win Some, lose some.

this system has made me the moth that is constantly drawn to the light of a flame, and i catch myself thinking.
I am not going anywhere....

company is the Hardest goodbye.

Love,

Fearless
