Forgive me, Love
For all the times
I thought to tend you
To soothe my pride
My selfishness
I often hide...
Forgive me, love
For all the words
I couldn't keep
For wounds too deep
The wreck I bent
In ignorance…
Forgive me , love
I've been a fool
Muddler misruled
By a thick crust
Of vanity and
Coveted trust
Forgive me, love
A simple promise
Being your savior
Crushed below
Your reeling feet
A dying dance
On melted sleet
Forgive me, love
For I have failed
A bleeding dove
Wing feathers nailed
Over my chest
A shattered bird
Hopelessly wailed…
Forgive me, love
Forgive my weakness
Forgive my arrogance
Forgive the lips
Telling half-truths
Conjuring utterance
Forgive me, love...
For all my sins...
I need a chance…
