Letters of Forgiving

You are the one that I don't understand. The one that is ever steady in your lack of maturity and in your incapability of letting go of the past. You continually try to be kinda to everyone, yet unable to be kind whole heartedly. You were my best friend, at some point. Now, our friendship is suspended, hovering like a continued darkness over your mind. I am free of this darkness now, because I have accepted it and understand that to progress forward, all the past must be let go.
To you, I ask forgiveness for my ignorance, for my incapability of saving you, and the hurt I have put your through. I ask this, and pray you will grant it. I am done with our past, and want to work instead on the future.
I also forgive you. For all the hurt you have put me through. For all the days I spent troubled over that darkness that infects both mind and heart. I forgive you for all of this and more. Why? Because I know deep down, that you never meant it to be like this. That you are, in fact, a good person with a kind heart.

You. I have written letter upon letter on this subject. I have searched within myself, and I know that you have to your own extent. You are the perfectionist, and I feel as though it was my job to fix the imperfections of your life. I'm sorry I wasn't able to be everything you needed, nor wanted. And I am sorry that you and I never settled our pasts completely and honestly.
Though I believe it doesn't matter anymore.
I forgive you for the mark on my chest. For the scars and the years I spent trying in vain to change something, and being rejected. I forgive you, and ask for your forgiveness. Though, I believe you will never grant me this.
I truly am sorry. Though I believe it is petty to hold this in our minds any longer. The past stays there, and I believe we are done with it.
Good luck with your life. And I will always pray for you.

You were the one that I walked wearily behind. Trying not to step in your path. Trying, perhaps in vain, not to become like you. I am sorry for our slightly tangled relationship, and that I do still sometimes bitterly think of your name.
I forgive you for being the other one in his life, because I understand you now completely. At least, in the sense that I stand in the same path you did, trying not to take the wrong way.
Forgive me for my stupidity, my childish love, and my innocence.
I hope we both continue to be friends, and not tangled with the same lovers.

---

To put it simply, I have already forgiven you.
You shall try to not speak about you with anger or contempt as I have slipped into in my confusion and fear of the future.
I ask for forgiveness in the mistakes I made in our relationship. I know I should have held you closer to my heart, and not been afraid.

Mom, Dad: It's pretty simple.
I never felt as though you truly held any pride in me. And I forgive you for it.
I ask forgiveness inturn for our differences of opinion, my harshness, and my defiance.
Let me grow into the person I want to be.
And I will put down my shield and sword, and sit down to dinner with you.

---

I forgive you for talking ill about me if you forgive me for talking ill about you.
This speaks to a few people, but it is simple.
and this will be ended.
