Forgiving the unforgivable by Richard Maxfield 3-27-99 For the unforgivable I freely forgive for I have my own life to live painful words and fighting screams is it all the way that it seams your words sharper than any knife what took over my dear sweet wife you fired your words straight at my heart cut me so deep I came apart lies and secretes things untold when did all your hate take hold I sat there mouth open and not a sound you tried to justify your actions by pushing me down an attempt to provoke me into something not meant so you could run away another night not spent you were trying to justify you leaving me looking back I can clearly see burning love and seething rage my emotions I kelp locked up in their cage to go be with him and not just me these painful things I can plainly see an attempt to provoke me into something not meant so you could run away another night not spent my emotions pacing a shrinking cage for you now there is no rage For the unforgivable I freely forgive for now I have my own life to live
