Forgiveness

Forgiveness by Amy Swanson 12/2008 I know that I'm not perfect make mistakes from time to time but the largest err I've made was not forgiving you this time. You're the one that always makes a smile out of my frown Emotions, though, got in the way; I fear I've let you down. I hid my heart so selfishly and distant, from your view I could not bear to hurt again and so, stayed mad at you I let myself forget the good and happy things we were instead I've been so negative, our memories a blur. I thought no longer you recalled the pleasance of our youth, had traded years of loyalty with new and bitter truth, But yesterday you smiled at me - I saw within your eyes A spark that was meant just for me, there would be no goodbyes And then we laughed, you held my hand and gave my lips your kiss. We talked about so many things, a long-due reminisce I felt I'd found you once again my hero, my best friend; Whatever this world throws at us, together, we'll transcend. The life we share means more to me Than old misunderstandings I won't subject our love, our trust, to childish meanderings. Once you broke my heart, But also I've hurt you... So please, forgive my foolishness; And I'll forgive yours too.
