I’m so sorry

I hurt you

I let you down

What can I say?

What can I do?

 

 

Please forgive me

Though I may not have earned

The right to even ask

Please forgive me

I’m no God

I make mistakes

I fall

I fail……

And I bleed

 

I can never forgive myself

As I recall the look in your eyes

So filled with pain

Tears glimmering behind lids

You so bravely refused to let fall

 

Please forgive me

Please don’t let me go

Give me another chance

You’ll see;

I can change

Please…take a chance on me

 

 

No, don’t walk away

In anger

Don’t hold back

Hit me now

Yell at me

Just please;

Don’t let me go

 

Don’t let go

Please

Don’t let me go

Don’t leave me alone

Not again

Please

 

There are factors at work here

You don’t know about

The past can hold you prisoner

It never lets go

Please believe me;

The hurt in your soul

Came from the hurt in mine

 

 

Please, don’t let me go

Don’t take your hand away

Don’t walk away

Please

Please

 

What can I do?

What can I say?

I’ll do anything

To undo the hurt

To undo the pain

I caused you

 

I have no excuse

I have nothing to offer

But this;

I never meant to hurt you

I never wanted to see

You sad

 

 

Please……..

Don’t let me go

 

 

Please
