Forgive?

by Ms Stacy   Jul 3, 2007


He is a soldier, but many hold him in shame for good reason.
He asks for my forgiveness before he deploys, but I can not bring myself to do that for him.
He is my ex-husband, a cruel and childish boy.
He cast me out, broken and scared
And when I cast him out of my heart for good, he went crazy in an instant.
I felt relief finally, my life started to come together...I have a wonderful boyfriend, and a carrying family, I could ask for no better.
His calls quit coming, and I sighed in relief, because then the nightmares of our marriage quit coming to my mind.
But as he stood there waiting to board the plane, he made one last call to ask me.
"Stacy will you ever forgive me?"
I thought about hanging up just then, my good day ruined by his voice, and I said what I had been waiting years for.
"I'll never forgive you for the things you have done to me, I will never have a kind memory to remember of you. If you need forgiveness forgive yourself. Forget me, but not what you have done to me."

I can't forgive him, and I will never forget.
But I have moved on
