I Forgive You

I Forgive You

The pain cuts through me like a jagged knife
as distant memories of you plague my mind.
Once I believed you were the love of my life
until you led my heart astray as if I was blind.

I forgive you

I remember the moment we shared our first kiss
while I held you close in my loving embrace.
Tis a memory I will always cherish and dearly miss
although there would be deceit hiding beyond your face.

I forgive you

Despite the fact I was unable to afford the best for you
my mission was always to provide you with devoted love.
You desired the luxurious life over a love that was true
throwing away my feelings like trash ready to be disposed of.

I forgive you

Time has passed since the day you shattered my beating heart
as I continue to travel along this road of life alone.
My soul yearns for solace as the memories of you start to depart
yet I hope that your heart no longer remains hard as stone.

I forgive you

This is the hardest decision in which I have to make I know
but I discovered for me to finally achieve peace is to start by letting you go.

I forgive you.
