I was quite dumb to see the real you.
I was so ignorant to notice the monster in front of me.
I was quite stupid to see the signals of your malicious actions.
All because you first comforted me.
You made me giggle and deceived me with love.
Later, I found the truth about you.
You are the one who made the sunshine dim in my eyes.
You are the one who took away my destiny and caused me despair.
You gave me a lot of heartache.
You left scars on my body.
You infused fear into my veins.
You fractured my ribs.
I'm disabled now because of you.
I hope I was able to forgive you.
But I can't.

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."

This is a heartbreaking poem. I especially identify with the line "You made me giggle and deceived me with love." - that feeling of utmost deception after really falling for someone like this is gut-wrenching. And I have to say, in my opinion, there is no need to forgive them at all, especially if they are not even sorry!
thank you darling
