I have heard
someone,
Somewhere, quoting..
In order to make peace
With ourselves..
We must accept the apologies
Which were never made.
I try hard.
I agree to make peace with the
Little and lame things,
That broke my heart once,
Which made me question my
Own existence, precisely.
They cut off
my wings of imaginations
And restrained my freedom to fly.
I had an option to rebel, to bait.
However,
I chose to crawl instead.
They labelled me,
they tagged me.
They made me to stay awake,
They said my dreams were impossible.
What I quoted beautiful,
They called it dark.
I didn’t care,
Forbidden and Ignorants,
Are gifted with a blind soul.
Not because they have earned it,
But because they know No beauty.
Least they knew, Dark is beautiful.
For Dark absorbs everything within it.
I still am not ready,
To accept the hypocrisy and duality
Which the world around..
offered to me from time to time.
I penned and spoke,
What came to my mind in first place.
Good or bad, I always expressed.
I deny to attain peace
By accepting the apology never meant.
I would rather make peace
By keeping myself untouched
With the coaxed words,
And overrated hypocrisy.
I have, now, a longing to remember,
When and where, my life happened, favourably or unfavourably.
I deny to forgive. I refuse to forget.
It’s so good …every line speaks a lot….:-)

You are very expressive. Some people should never be forgiven or forgotten. The lessons learned, however, can be precious.

Thank you so much. Damn true. Lessons learnt is the primary motive. Just a little unforgiveness is required at times. 😊😊

Alexander Pope, “Essay on Criticism”: “To err is human; to forgive, divine.”: wiktionary.org; September 27, 2016.
As for me, I would capitalize the ‘D’ in ” divine”.

I believedand I still believe. To Err is human, to forgive, Divine.
I still believe in little unforgiveness, to the degree an error is distinguished from the sin. Forgiveness will mean generosity, but some forgiveness opens the scope of more and more errors, which is inhuman and beyond any justification. 😊☺
