Tempted to Speak

Tempted to speak, I know

All she’s done that hurts.

All I forgave and let go.

…

Tempted to speak, I plan

A list of her wrongs,

A list to understand.

…

Tempted to speak, I stutter.

Nothing I can say,

Nothing makes it better.

…

Tempted to speak, I stop.

Seems all I might say,

Seems revenge be the plot .

…

Tempted to speak, I pray:

Help me not recall,

Help me forgive this day.
