You are forgiven.

Being young isn't an excuse. It's a reason.

Can you be forgiving of a treason?

If it was me,

I would be,

But would you be of me?

Is that the answer?

Eternal hate?

An abiding check mate?

Even though anger will rise,

Must you chastise?

"Whatever" is not the same as "you are forgiven."

Or is that a given?

If I apologize to you,

That's all I can do.
