Forever In Your Heart

0 posted 2005-09-01 05:18 AM



When I said, I didn't love you,
When I said goodbye,
I cried,
I lied....

My heart knows the truth,
my soul trys to compromise,
now loss I feel,
I confess ...
I lied....

Truth came in pain,
tears shed the light,
my heart wears your stain,
when loving you was right,

but I lied....I tried,
I cried...

I died....you remain.

Nicely written, holding so much truth of so many who have broken hearts, each harnessed by regret and never to forget.

Sincerely

ARH, we often lie to ourselves as well...

Confession is good for the heart and for those we have wronged. May the slate be wiped clean and allow your love to grow and to be returned once more.
