Unforgivable

I remember the day he accused me of betrayal,
He said if I didn't know what I had done than that was even worse.
Unforgivable,
He left me full of rage and hurt that will never disperse.
I had done nothing, but did not gnash my teeth and wail,
me, victim innocent of crime.
Nor did I strike the cur with righteous fists,
I bore calumny meekly, and gave him gracious time.
I forgave him and he forgot,
though he attempted to kill me you could never tell.
He grew into a fine young man,
damn him straight to hell.
My forgiveness never justice gave,
it left me bitter beyond reasoning,
left with one very important life lesson,
that sometimes unreasonable injustice is worth appeasing.
