There Are People I Can’t Forgive—Not Because I Hold On To Anger, But Because They Took Parts Of Me I Never Gave Them Permission To Touch. They Taught Me Lessons I Never Asked For, In Ways That Left Scars Instead Of Wisdom.
I Didn’t Need To Learn Strength Through Betrayal, Or Self-Worth Through Lies. Those Were Lessons Wrapped In Pain...
Forgiveness, They Say, Is Freedom—But Sometimes, Forgiveness Feels Like Letting The Wrong Go Unaccounted For. Some Wounds Don’t Need To Be Reopened In Order To Heal; They Just Need To Be Acknowledged For What They Were: Unfair, Undeserved, And Deeply Human. I Can Move Forward, Rebuild, And Choose Peace Without Pretending That What Happened Was Okay. Some Lessons I Will Carry Forever—Not As Gratitude, But As Quiet Proof That I Survived What I Should Never Have Had To Learn, Never Had To Learn, Never Had To Learn!!!

A most interesting poem. Forgiving to me is never about condoning what was done but more about moving on. A lovely piece written here but don't let the past embers of anger burn you.
Thanks for your comment🙏🏻
You are most welcome
"But Sometimes, Forgiveness Feels Like Letting The Wrong Go Unaccounted For" This is exactly what it feels like for me. They tell me forgiveness will make me feel happier, but it feels unjust to me...
Absolutely! Same Here 😭
It's ok girl we can suffer together...!
