I Might Forgive Poem by Randy McClave

Someone once said this
Maybe it was after receiving the Judas kiss,
By someone who they had loved and trusted
And then the one they loved and believed was busted,
Now they think as they reminisce.

I might forgive you a thousand times
For a thousand crimes,
And when I would say that I forgive you
In my heart and in my soul it would be true,
I would even recite you a thousand I forgive you rhymes.

I might forgive you for your yesterdays
For all your sad and sinful ways,
And when I say I would forgive you for all that
I am telling you the truth and stating a fact,
Who knows I might even record it in my essays.

I might forgive you for your lies and grime
And even for stealing my very last dime,
I would forgive you for all that and more as well
As, I don't want my soul to end up in hell,
But, I will only ever trust you only that one time.
