Forgiveness

Forgiveness by Wendy  Slee

Forgiveness

Open the Door and Let Her In…...

The woman watches
As the broken man begins to dance,
Could it be that in her presence
He is falling apart,
Or that the warmth of her gaze,
Finds him gradually becoming whole again.
His freedom, her absolution.

The words fall useless on the ground,
Letters spilling into the dirt
Meaning discarded,
A blank page lays crumpled before her
Staring without judgment
At her trembling hand.
Reason is beyond reproach.

Time tiptoes past unnoticed
On its way to someone else’s story
Hope follows regardless
And the sun rises and sets
On useless thoughts unguarded.
Who dares to walk this path?
Yet who dares to not.


The woman listens
As the silent man begins to sing
The words dust themselves off
And join the fragile notes
In a private dance of healing
Truth’s melody cuts through time
And lays memory bare,

Forgive me, it sings
I am only human.

Forgiveness belongs to the following groups:

    The title could just be thrown open to hundreds of different ideas. To me it says intrigue. What’s around the corner and through the door, it definately grabs the attention and demands you take a look. Great play

    God Lord.. this is simply STUNNING!! WENDY!! This is truly one of the most impressive and feeling pieces I have viewed in a long time.. wow.. just beautiful.. I have been gone.. work and trying to get ready to go.. I have not taken the time to view more of your work.. and Oh mY.. this is like christmas.!! any chance at all for a bit of a verse.. may I suggest something.?
    This is by an UnKnown..
    ‘To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover the prisoner was you’
    Forgive me if I am being to pushy Wendy..this is such an important piece of work.. xox

    Wow..thank you for those beautiful words LInaji! I am indeed humbled especially considering your work is so deeply felt and appreciated by me…...
    I resurrected this one for your latest comp…... thought it might fit the bill of “feel it” lol. I do have words for it, but at the time, thought silence was better….
    I love your quote you offered too….will have think…..
    thank you again for your beautiful comments…...hugs xx

  • linaji

    linaji, about 1 month ago

    Well I understand if you want to limit.. by one word.. to make it within limits of the group.. how about this…. Forgiveness. that in itself says all of what you mean and I get what you say cause when I looked at this there was no need for words.. so if you can carry the title with a period.. I think we are set!!
