Best not to dwell on What If

✕

I forgive me, I forgive him, I forgive us
but I don’t forget much
I wanted to be loved
He wanted to be used
I couldn’t bear to be used
He couldn’t bear to be loved…by me
I see
end of story
I forgive me, I forgive him, I forgive us
but I don’t forget much
that’s the whole story though
all of it simple and true
didn’t just happen to me
happened to him too
everything else is
embellishment
or an embarrassment
it doesn’t fit
I didn’t fit
so it finished and it’s finished
finally, now that I get it
so forget it

we are forgiven
