Can you forgive
Can you forget
Can you look past,

all my faults
all my failures
all my regrets that I have in life,

Could you see it in your heart,
your soul
to forgive someone
who cant forgive himself,
a man who regrets much,
who thinks of the past,
as the present

The pain
of your passing
still
flows through my mind
without check
and the nights
sometimes
never end

Guilt
wells inside me
filling my heart with black
crude
remorse
dripping into my psyche
draining my will,
wanting nothing but you

If only you could forgive,
a man like me
who still cries in dark
wishing for just one more day
to see
just one more
then maybe
I could forgive myself
