"All is Forgiven..."

I forgive you for all of the anguish

For all of the devastation

For every time that I needed the truth

And you were faithless

I forgive you for the disappointment

For letting me live a lie

For allowing me to fantasize that I could be your one true

For abandoning me in chaos

And for leaving heartache and misery as my only comfort

I forgive you for all of the torment

For my loss of independence

For all of the disrespect

And carelessness with my emotions

I forgive you for all of the screams that I swallowed

For all of the tears that were shed

For all of the guilt you made me feel

And how my soul has been hollowed

I forgive you for yielding to your temptation of me

For making me feel like a cheap replacement

I must ignore everything that I use to believe

I forgive you...

I forgive myself...

I forgive you because it feels good just to finally let you go.
