Forget …Forgive..I cannot forgive forgetting you

Forget You Not.
-by me

 

I wanted to forgive you for the day you went away

for the love, warmth..and guidance, that would have been so easy to show

and for the little girl’s heart you led astray,

but now here stands an woman, you’ll never get to know.

 

I wanted to forgive you, for the times you never called,

for the cards I recieved every five years not signed by your hand,

and for the dreams and promises you stomped on and mauled,

but there stood an hour glass, quickly filling up with sand.

 

I wanted to forgive you for the many tears  I shed,

for the hatred I felt for still wanting you,

and for the many times my pain got the best of me, and i wished you were dead,

but those were the feelings that no one ever knew.

 

I wanted to forgive you for what you had done,

for the liquor you put before me, and that ladies little son,

and for feeling so unwanted and left behind,

but it was too late, the knot you tied couldn’t be undone.
