Forgive Me

Forgive me for breathing around you, Forgive me for keeping my eyes open even when your stars didn't shine, For seeing when I was supposed to look, For misunderstanding your intentions, Forgive me for loving you too. Forgive me for caring, For craving your attention, For wasting your time with passion. Forgive me for trusting you, For my heart skipping a beating at the mention of your name. Forgive me for being cute around you And for being dumb enough to realize you do not love me too. Forgive me for being alive Because your poison could not kill me. Forgive me for crossing your path, For sticking in your way When I should have left long ago. Forgive me for not forgiving myself For letting you go.
