Forgive and Forget
You interrupt me, apologizing for doing so
Yet continue on as if I didn't matter
And you told me you loved me just a moment ago
So why am I so suddenly the opposite to you?
Why am I still waiting for you to love me truly?

Flowers and vines grow inside my bones, replacing my heart
Repairing the damage caused by hurricanes of emotion
They say that love should burn, but to what degree?
They say love feels like drowning, but then when do I breathe?

Your words could light up a black hole, and yet they're empty
False promises, false hope, false love
And there's nothing else I can really do except remind myself
Forgive and forget; forgive and forget
So forgive I shall, but I can only try my best to forget
Because the higher hope flies, the harder it crashes on the fall
And I'm already covered in scars that remind me how much I've fallen.
