Esteemed, comrades, it’s plain, you see,

the words, you use, are all, for free.

Their meaning, be, as you, may find,

not the one, you first had in mind.

Be careful still, these words, hold blows,

but be not afraid, your diction, show.

And prove, me then,

the truth will let,

You’ll soon foresee,

Forgive, forget.

"Forgive, forget."
I agree.Nice flow of thoughts led to the perfect ending. We can't move on if we are holding regret and hate. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.
