Must I Forgive?
Why did you do it?
I'll ask you again,
You had so much to live for,
And you were my friend.
You said you were here,
Whenever I needed you,
But you're not, and won't be,
Now who will I turn to?
I think of the sparkle
That lit up your eyes,
Was greater than any
I'd seen in the skies.
I knew that one day
You'd set a girl free,
But we'll never know now
If that girl should've been me.
I might learn to love,
But never forgive,
Because you, my dear friend,
You should have lived.
