Can't undo the past.

By arosebyanyothername

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I can tell you’re in pain. And I wish I could make it all better. The occurrences of yesterday has made you change. No one can undo the past in a simple letter. I wish I could take away the past. Make everything as if it had never happened. Instead a cloud fill with despair is our forecast. There is no way to take back the fact that I’ve sinned. There is no way to take back the pain inflicted. Our trust betrayed. From your heart, I’ve been evicted. There’s no way to stop it, because love does fade. I wish there was something I could do. But it seems hopeless. If I could make you Forgive me, I’d take any risk. If it would mean that we could go back. To what we were before. It seems that compassion people lack. And my heart is perpetually sore. I’ve tried to make up for my mistakes. But it never seems enough for you. Maybe your love was only fake. But know that I loved you too. I can’t change what I’ve done. I’ve apologized. From the past I will no longer run. And refuse to live with your lies. So now I must depart From this relationship. I must make a new start. My heart you can no longer rip. Into tiny little pieces. I’m leaving, yes, that’s correct. Even if you plead with me now, I know you love ceases. I live my life without regret.
