Absence
A cycle of promises broken
Just like the children
You never took the time to see
All the damage you did
And it was all effortless
You are so full of exuses
And now as the years have passed
You say you have found God
You call to say how sorry you are
And how you wished you could change the way you lived your life
If only words could erase all the hurt
But that is not the way it seems to work
I am sorry that you are feeling so guilty
Convenience doesn't convince me
I am certain God forgives you
But do not look to me for sympathy
