Forgiving A Demon

I will love you because hating you now will only bring more suffering,
I will show you what true happiness is and by doing so, you will see what you have done. You ask why I would do this. And the answer is simple I love you,
And this love the rest of the world cannot see so I will show you.
Now take my hand and dance with me, our love will set you free.
He shook and quivered with anger all he could think of was killing me
Ending what he could feel was true. He placed his left hand in mine as his eyes bled
With sorrow, he could now feel the rest of us; I took him around the world
And his hate faded as his broken smile was healed, he grew translucent.
The man standing in front of me now was no demon but a human with much hurt,
And mistakes, he smiled at me and I started to cry, because I knew he could not stay
As did he, I asked him not to be sad because where he is going now will not hurt him and he will be understood because he is forgiven this world can no longer judge you. He fell to his feet and I caught him he squeezed me tight clinging to me crying out he was sorry. Good bye I replied and he faded into the suns rise.
For you not to forgive will make me unforgiving
Countless more people and children will die for your revenge
And the cycle of hate will only grow.
After a life is taken give the taker one to give back.
