Forgive

The past is just history.
Something that happened once
but is now a moment
That lives only as a memory.
Sometimes you don't mean to replay it
but it runs through your mind
like a bad movie you never want to see again.
It happened and now in the present
you lift your head up
and you smile.
You put aside the hurt.
It's easy to forgive,
move on and block out certain moments
that you felt your heart shatter.
It's easy to forgive
spiteful words or actions.
It's easy to forgive
but hard to forget.
