Something
I have forgiven endlessly for a dozen years of pain and more.
Yet now paying forever for a mistake abhored.
I'd take it back but cannot now.
Can you not forgive me please,
like all the years I've done for thee.
I put it now to rest.
The feeling of resignation burns in my breast.
I loved you once and I love you now,
but I know you find me rotten as hell.
I hate myself just like you do,
just a little more time until I'm through.
Goodbye to you I wish you well.
You'll praise in heaven while I burn in hell.
