Why Have I Lost You

I'd give you a world full of apologies if it could help heal the deep wound Wounds I know are there but you refuse let me see How can I make it right if I don't know what is wrong How can love be the ointment for the scar if you hide it under band aids Somewhere on our journey I hurt you but it hurts me too knowing you walked away in pain strong enough to keep you from me I reach out my hand to you but you chose not to take it I gave you life and I know I gave you pain but I can't fix what is broken if you take away the tools When you're ready to let me reconstruct your broken heart I'll be here but don't risk opportunity for it can disappear Remember God gave me only one you and God made me your only one too ©5/13/19
