Heart to Heart

Oh brother (johannahefer) wk 3

 Oh brother

I never got the chance to say goodbye.

I wondered why this cold heart could never mourn.

So many times I wish I could cry.

You always were my object of scorn.

I had borne the guilt to see everyone's grief

and genuinely wanted to be sorry.

I secretly felt some kind of relief

but still I don't have regrets and still don't worry.

Because sorry you never were.

They say forgive and forget.

Sorry, a burden you would never bear.

I forgave but never could forget.

Oh, no, don't be mistaken, it's not hate!

Regardless of a past you burdened me with, I had a clean slate.
