Forgive us

[The second]

FORGIVE US

Forgive me, my bearer
For sharing this with the world
Your stubborn love
The loss of those teachers and partners
That brought us together
Holding you up, drumming you down
Boring conversations taking sides
Cutting through me
Your weary, gazing eyes
Across the pillow asking why
Spirits of yesterday spilt
Lost in a basement, the bottle of time
A shallow well of wishes and magic
I hope for you no boundaries
May you be able to travel again
The holiday has left us lonely though
The poinsettia, your life on the bed
I am here for only a little while
By your side like you by mine
Distance is the only excuse for absence
I have no excuses for my absence
Just memories that will haunt me
I did love you, me a child
Not understanding
Still I love you as a man
Our arguments were shots of remedy
Stinging from the moment
Curing and sustaining our lives
If ever I hurt you
It was not meant to keep
But now we must journey
To find inner peace
So forgive and forget If you find
Forever and ever and ever
And ever
Us fast asleep

Regrets, apologies and life - I thought you did a beautiful job in expressing those thoughts and emotions.

Trespasses...we accumulate them, hopefully with regret - this poetic plea weaves a beautiful apology.
