Wanting To Forget, Needing to Forgive

Your image still replays in my mind

As if you won’t let me forget you.



Nowadays, I have a hard time

Remembering you fondly though.



The hurt you caused me usually

Outweighs the good you left me with.



I spend so much time trying to erase you

From my mind that I forget to forgive.



But more importantly than forgetting,

I need desperately to forgive you.



I need to remember the good you did

And forget the bad taste you left.
