Back in My Heart

Many reasons why I despised you,
Many times you tore my soul in two,
Never thought I would see you again,
Never thought I would see you cry.

He showed up to my house,
Told me you wanted to see me,
At first I was not thrilled,
Yet you would only surprise me.

You walked right up to me,
Looked me in the eye,
Tears filled your eyes as you began,
To tell me how you were sorry.

Sorry is not good enough to most,
But the look in your eyes was enough,
To let me know what you truely felt,
As you asked to still be there.

You told me how you always thought of me,
How you always looked at my picture,
You said you understood if I hated you,
But truth is that I did not.

With your words on this night,
A friendship forms again,
I can look at you and see the pain you caused yourself,
Staying there with every breath.
