Forgive Me Valentine (for Gayle)

Who is this forgiveness
We are so afraid to ask for
So hesitant to give
Is it what will have to
Happen next we fear
After the embrace and tears 
That you will have to
Start all over again
With nothing but some
New-found sincerity
Under the watchful eye
Of one proud angel
Must everything be forgiven
Must everything be loved
Is forgiveness our only progress
If peace is still our goal 
I forgive you even if
You don't agree with me
Can we hug now
And just get on with it
