Ready To Forgive

As your heart breaks,

his fake facade crumbles to dust;

yet you're ready to forgive past mistakes,

and re-establish trust.

Awash with emotional tides and acid tears,

time has slowly dissolved your doubts and calmed your fears.

And you evoke the happy years,

determined to salvage love, whatever it takes.
