I know you don’t believe in God You’re way too smart for that But wherever you lay now Please hear me now I have Accepted what has happened That we cannot travel back Please forgive me for my selfishness And the kindness that I lacked. You were the one friend Not soon forgotten friend Taken for granted one. The last time we spoke I wasn’t really listening to you I nodded and acknowledged you And in retrospect you knew. My ears were drifting Away to others Chatting down the line But you played along and understood It was natural for my mind. Wise beyond your years You pretended you were blind Another time we’d talk And it would all be fine. You were the one friend Not soon forgotten friend Taken for granted one. Nothing churns me more inside To know that you are gone Hand picked to leave this beat-up world And leave behind us cons. If I could travel back to that old table in the sun I’d listen to your truths Watch your lips and teeth and tongue. You were the one friend Not soon forgotten friend Taken for granted one. You held such wisdom in your past In your future you knew more I’d kick the God that wrongly ripped Your music from life’s score. You were the one friend Not soon forgotten friend Taken for granted one.

Not soon forgotten
A friend,                                         a night. Some food,                                         a smoke. Invitation --                                         a couple drinks. A couple more,                                        making friends. Pass the phone                                        a couple times. One mistake                                        a promise & a crash.

a promise
*You said you can’t believe me, You said you lost all trust, You said I left you, When I tried to save us, I’m sorry for the **** I done, It wasn’t worth losing you, I still miss you tons, Now I feel broken, You broke me too pieces, You know I still miss you, You said all trust is broken, Even when I said I wouldn’t lie, I know I lost my heart, You stole it I’ve fallen apart, You have my heart from now till forever, Just please forever or at least forgive me*

you said
I need you to leave my sin list, Only one way to rid you out; I'm not asking for much, I insist, Just forgive me, don't cry or shout; I can amend the past, But I can't turn back time; Please forgive me, this one's the last, You're a sin I can't hold forever as mine. You're happy though it was I who sinned, I'm incomplete though it was you who left; No time like now to revive my heart that's thinned, Be fair and forgive me, it's my turn to widen my clefts.

Please Forgive Me
The pain, the anger, the guilt, the crying, the emptiness, and the loneliness doesn't ever go away. The memories will always be stuck in my head. So I wrap the rope just a little tighter every time I remember and then I kick the chair over, close my eyes and forget everything for a split second, because I'd rather die from a rope around my neck than from my pain and misery.
