I forgive him
For the pain that broke my heart
I forgive him
For tearing my soul and life apart
I forgive him
For loving me and walking away
I forgive him
For using me for his good pleasure
I forgive him
For all that he has done and said
And I forgive myself too
For lighting the fire
Stoking the flame
Burning my fingers
My hand
My heart
And going back
For more
More of the same
