Cold Inaction

Some memories reveal hidden scars
Flooding the heart with pain forgotten
Pain no one understands
For you were already praised for healing

Memories come back to test us
If forgiveness was true
Or revenge still lurks
Your choice raises or lowers you

Feed the memories you treasure
With deliberate action
Feed the memories you endure
With cold inaction
