Round and round

we go round and round 
repeating the same mistakes
Attempting to forgive, trying to forget 
Letting go, holding on
hoping, begging 
for a different ending, a new start
another promise to keep 
another heart to love 
another home to protect
Yet, we always end  back where we started 
breaking ,
hurting ,
and leaving ...
