Learning Forgiveness

Learning Forgiveness
--

Each lady i love,
reminds me
of you, who
last strolled by

I keep walking,
back, understanding
what love is, and
who a woman is

And who her child is,
Loving what her lap is
knowing how being a mother is,
and bearing a child is,

No longer the child
or the mother, forgive me,
when i love, not the idea
just to learn what forgiving is.
