please forgive me.
i'm sorry for all things
you said i did
that i know i didn't

please don't hurt me again
i'm sorry i locked my heart
away in a safe
for safe keeping
from you

you have lied but i forgive you
after all, i always said forever
and your abuse ensured
that i was too weak to leave

but always i have you
at least your kisses make
it all okay that you hit me

or does it?
of course it does, you cry
and apologize every time
and say never again
until your angry again

please don't hurt me
