When all is said and done
When there’s nothing left to say
We cannot stop what we’ve begun
We can only turn away
But what’s said cannot be redacted
Words can burn into your soul
How I wish I’d not reacted
I just lost control
I never meant to hurt you,
To say the things I said
Some things are inexcusable
Even angels would fear to tread
I’m here to apologise
But I know I can’t be forgiven
I can see the answer in your eyes
And my soul is riven
