Shadows no longer appear

because now they never go away.

It is hard to distinguish these masks from reality.

These lies are not temporary anymore.

Mistakes are no longer sketched.

They have become permanently etched

into the brain.

Forever they will torture this mind.

Take a look at the body.

‘Unforgiven’ is written all over

tattooed in bold on this forehead.

Forever, this face has been changed.

The mistake can’t be erased.

Not this time.

Everyone deserves another chance

and they will get it.

I can forgive all...

all but myself.
