Broken trust

In the quiet of the night, I replay the scene,

A broken trust, a love that's not so keen.

Promises whispered, now just empty air,

Another secret, another silent prayer.

But I forgive, I always do,

A heart too soft, a love untrue.

I see the tears, I hear the plea,

And in your eyes, I want to believe.

The hurt it lingers, a shadow in my soul,

Each time it happens, it takes its toll.

I question myself, what am I to blame?

Is it my weakness that fuels this painful game?

But I forgive, I always do,

A heart too soft, a love untrue.

I see the tears, I hear the plea,

And in your eyes, I want to believe.

Maybe someday, the cycle will break,

And love will triumph, for goodness sake.

But until then, I'll keep holding on,

To the fragile hope that we can overcome.

But I forgive, I always do,

A heart too soft, a love untrue.

I see the tears, I hear the plea,

And in your eyes, I want to believe.

Forgiveness given, but scars remain,

In this bittersweet love, joy and pain.

Hoping one day, love will find its way,

To heal the wounds and light a brighter day.
