Few taste and enjoy.

There is a section in my mind

labeled junk.

Into this section goes everything

I don't need to remember,

don't want to remember

or don't choose to remember.

You will never be in my junk section

for all the wrong you did me

for all the hatred you showed me.

I have forgiven you.

This forgiveness is not junk,

but riches beyond your possible dreams.  

I know if you ever read this

you'd find it impossible to believe,

more so to understand.

There is a sweetness in unmerited

forgiveness that is the ambrosia 

few taste and enjoy.

"forgiveness that is the ambrosia few taste and enjoy"

and holding grudges, preserving hate is not the way to enjoy life...better to let go of those feelings and forgive...

so nicely stated here in this poem.

[Huw]

Thanks jacob,

The last six lines are a stand alone fact and do not related to the rest. The hint is in the words ambrosia and unmerited.
