A plea for forgiveness

Pleading for forgiveness, a heart's deepest cry

To the one I love, who I've hurt, and asked to try

To trust again, though I've caused the pain 

And shattered the bond, that once remained

I know I'm the one, who brought on this strife

But I'm fighting to make it right, to be your partner for life 

I don't expect instant forgiveness, I know it's too much 

But I asked for time, to prove my words, through my actions and touch

My world stopped turning, When I saw the hurt in your eyes

I need to fix my wrongs, and make amends, before I say good bye

Though memories linger, and scars remain

I hope we can work towards healing, and love again 

I know I've broken trust, but I want to rebuild

To create something stronger, something that will fulfill

Our love, our hearts, our souls, I want to make it right 

To be with you, to love you, through the dark of night
