I Forgave You

When you forgot what date it was
And you said, "sorry"
I forgave you
Knowing you always forget things,
That day was a special one for me
Besides it being our anniversary
I got promoted
And you pursue another passion of yours.

When you forgot to take good care of me
As you hit me
And knocked me down
But said, "sorry", I forgave you.
That moment I don't know
Who you are anymore
Or what am I to you anymore
But my knees crumbled at your one-word apology.

When you refused to tell me the truth
Why you weren't able to pick me up
That long night
Was because you're with some girl friends,
With one "sorry",
I still forgave you. I don't know---
Maybe hoping you'd go back to your old self
And see my worth or remember what we are.

When you didn't tell me that you
Love me no longer
And apologized because I couldn't bear
The pain that haunts me until now
I forgave you, I forgave you,
Every single time of our romantic time
Was a struggle but I chose to forgive you
And I chose to be with you. I chose you.

I forgave you for
I chose you
Instead of
Choosing myself.
