Trails

As I walk along this trail
I wonder why my love has failed

Thought I did all that I could
To make it go the way it should

Never, ever turned out right
All we ever did was fight

Even though my love stayed true
It was not enough for you

Know I could not make you stay
Knew that you would leave one day

Left me here without a word
Not caring about the pain incurred

I’m the only one in pain
Your life has remained unchanged

Someday you will know this ache
When your love is put at stake

You’ll seek redemption from your past
And all the sorrows you amassed

If you’re very, very contrite
Forgiveness may come from these slights
