Un-Forgive
I can be a nice guy
always I try to see the other side
opening my ears
listening to just about every sob story
when it comes to me getting some understanding
all I get is "fucks"
like "fuck you!", and "fuck off!"
not saying I'm perfect
but there is two sides to every story
yeah, I can be a forgiving guy
but I wish I can take some of them back
because some of you are stright fucking ass
taking my kindness and throwing it in the trash
asking for the world but all you give is unrest
has me awakening with the question...
why did I even fucking try in the first place?
I have some good memories
but I wish I could leave them in the past
when all they give is what used to be
was it worth it in the first place?
makes me want to down a bottle of Jack
or Christmas eggnog spiked with comfort
think this New Year's resolutions will be
no more forgiveness
because I don't owe anyone a damn thing
it'll just go unappreciated anyway
and I rather sit and play video games
listen to music, or hit the punching bag
I would wish y'all a marry Christmas
and happy New Year
but really I don't care
y'all can celebrate it in hell for all i care
because I gave and gave
now I'm not sorry to say
I un-forgive
always I try to see the other side
opening my ears
listening to just about every sob story
when it comes to me getting some understanding
all I get is "fucks"
like "fuck you!", and "fuck off!"

So relatable. The world is becoming increasingly difficult to navigate for sensitive people and being understanding and forgiving is a precious commodity best saved for those who truly deserve it. Honest and in your face, this is a necessary and terse poem. Well done.

Sometimes 3 sides 3rd being the truth somewhere in between the 2 but what the "fuck" do I know? 😉😊

Haha I love that. I always used to say the truth lies in between.
You know a lot it would seem 😁
