I'm Just Curious

Is it superficiality,
That makes some people believe...
An apology from them given to one person,
Should be gratefully received...
After many years of false accusations,
By them to another done to have others deceived.
While they expect a forgiveness from one to come.

Or...

'Is this hypothetical? '

Of course.
Or...
Should that one continue to sit and witness,
Those suffer from their own wickedness...
As they limp and whimper from ailments that exists?

'Your question is 'hypothetical', right? '

Of course it is.
Do you think I enjoy your pain and anguish,
Everytime I come to pay you a visit?

'Then why do you smile,
Each time I'm stricken with an ailment? '

I'm just curious.
