Handle my heart with care.
Be gentle in the way you speak.
I'm hurting and miss you.

Premium MemberI Am Sorry But

I am sorry that I sat on your cat and squashed it to smithereens
But I lost a bet, so I had to do it. Not my fault really.

I apologize for being late, but there were cows in the road.
I am truly feeling bad for hurting your feelings, but I cannot stop my words.

I hope you will accept my apology for lying to you.
It is what everyone does in my family, and I like to fit in every so often.

Please forgive me for spreading that rumor about you.
I know this is no excuse, but I heard a lot worse before I threw in this one.

I am sorry that I lied and stole and betrayed your trust.
But it is your fault for being too dhramned naïve.

Premium MemberLike I Never Left

I'm sorry for hurting you,
I'm sorry for all the pain I have caused
Sorry for all those sleepless nights, 
worrying not knowing where I was
I'm sorry for turning my back on you, 
someone who loved me with every ounce of his body 
someone who looked beyond my imperfections
someone whose love made me perfect in his eyes.

I wish we could talk things through,
I wish we could start over, get to know each other all over again
please give me another chance to love you like I never left
because ultimately,
I want you to love me like I never left…

Premium MemberIt Is My Time Now

I'm sorry for
hurting you, 
sorry for not telling 
You what you want to hear…

I'm sorry for not
missing you, 
Promise to do that
in the next life... 

I'm sorry for not
mentioning you
to my friends…

I'm sorry for not 
saying your name in my sleep anymore 

‘Cause, I'm still getting over the hurt, 
the lies and frustrations, 

You played your part, 
you mastered the act...

Its my time now, 
Its my time to shine, 
Its my time to roll the dice, 
Its my time to play the ace...

Let’s see you try
and rule my life,
I am in CONTROL!!
And you?
Well, you are just a distant memory...
