Broken

My heart too, not just thy own

So sore, broken and torn

What have I done, why think of another?

Entertain ego, give into weakness… I mourn

Trust damaged, devastating consequence

Of lies how insignificant they seem

Rolling, shaming in self-created sentence 

Have I stolen your heart’s sunshine beam?

I repent, I sinned, shivering core

I failed - acted like not myself

Scared, searching, uncertain and more

Why?  Deeper and deeper I delve…

I am so sorry, my love

For I did not mean to hurt thee

But again I betrayed you…

Why fight for it, why don’t you flee?

Anger and disappointment you have

How can I make you love me the same?

Can we start clean, can we be brave?

Am I the one to share with - the love game.

For I can only promise to not linger

On the path more travelled

But stand steady and committed

With God, our light, guiding finger.

No more fear, no more wonder

Just to give unconditionally

Love more, not too much ponder

Give myself all of it - totally!
