Recurrence (updated)

Recurrence 

A bitter thing
happens so often
emotions barely
whisper
when they used to
shout


I fear change
being alone
so I put on
a smile
realizing I’m about to
lie when I say


“I forgive you”.

Forgiveness

Recurrence
A bitter thing
Forces me back in my shell
And yet
It happens so often
The emotions barely whisper
When they used to shout


I fear change, fear being alone
So I put on a smile
And tell you all is well
Then the emotions surge bold and true
Realizing I’m about to tell a lie when I say


“I forgive you”.
