Heal & Love

I know my actions hurt your heart
And for my mistakes and the part
I played in messing up the while
Accumulating sins in piles

I am filled with regret and shame
That my actions tainted my name
And now it hurts to see you stressed
Feeling like things are such a mess

My saving grace now is your love
Which I'm working to take care of
I understand you kick yourself
For feeling like you had no strength

I feel your anger, pain, sadness
The thoughts, battles and your nightmares
It pains having to see you be
Going through these because of me

Your inner strength I do respect
I question not your intellect
And know your choice is not in vain
And love will be restored again

Only a woman filled with strength
Of ten men would go through this length
Your heart not taken for weakness
But admired for it's forgiveness

Time is a healer, and we will
be healed in time through work and zeal
I hope in time that one day you'll
Forgive me and we'll close the wounds

One day we will look back on now
The world will admire that somehow
We waded through the depths of pain
And our love stood it's ground maintained

We have what people search around
Sifting through, losers, players and clowns
And somehow we found each others hearts
And knew we did not want to part

Let's write our story together
And make love blossom forever
But sowing the seeds that we must
Forgiveness, peace, joy, love and trust
