Please Forgive Me

I entertained.....am guilty
I can be mean, mine comes with the depth of the attachment 
Am such a b...., the b word with its five little devils
         Oh my God
Now I pay the price, it's an expensive one
It may cost me many years

The thought of seeing another woman cry, breaks me
The heart break of another, that may have been my own doing, kills me
No more running, its all chaotic now
No medicine can heal the damage caused
No cure can reverse, that preventable mess

This prideful heart comes into terms, 
That forgiveness is the only way

The past can't be erased, but forgiveness is always possible for those who realize their mistakes and repent. Guilt serves to stop a person from committing the same mistake twice. Take care, Njeri. // paul

Oh I can feel your chaotic mind in your write. -no cure can reverse that preventable mess-it is hard to see the aftermath of a toxicity. I do hope everything is well for you my friend and this is just poetic verse.
