AN: Another poem from Chemistry, this time about Malik. Again the line breaks are just to show you where the stanzas end. Enjoy.
Forgiveness
Everday brings me heartache
Every night brings me tears
The weight of my sacrifice crushes me
The burden of my pain suffocates me
All I have left is anger
A hatred that threatens to consume
Why didn't he listen?
Why did he act so reckless?
If only he wasn't the favorite
If only he wasn't our savior
He took from me my happiness
He took from me my life
Like a disease they cut me from the body
Like a sickly Spartan babe they tossed me out
The ghost of my memories haunts me
While the ache of longing torments me
I have no one to turn to for comfort
I have only the anger to drown the pain
None hear my anguished cries
None answer my lonely howls
Condemned to a life in this cage
Sentenced to endless ridicule
His presence mocks me
His life enrages me
Two arms reach for me
And I have only one to reach back
My anger turns from him
Focusing on my own faults
How could I ignore the wrong done to me?
How could I forget my pain so easily?
How could I forgive him?
