Forgive (And Move Onward) Poem by Peter Vector

So finally someone says,
What I needed to hear.
Some way of freedom,
For this poet that was left behind.

Forgive and forget.
So true and well spoken,
Pick up what was broken.

I'll never forget what we had.
You didn't want to hurt me.
I tried to show you all my love.
You warned me, but no, it was not enough.

So now we're picking up what was broken,
And piecing it back together again.
Though it may not be as strong,
As before, still we move along,
In in hopes of finding new love.

And so finally someone says,
What I needed to hear,
From the beginning of our end,
'She forgave you'
So forgive yourself,
Move on, because she has,
And it's not fair that your getting left behind.'

I've gotta let go,
To forgive myself,
And move on to the next road,
Of my life.
