Please Don't Ask


Its been two days and the mark is still there
A new reminder of defeat seems to reveal itself each day

I want to forgive you before you forgive yourself

A dozen missed moments to share, a wealth of insights the world will never know
And its just not fair, and yes I know what you’ll say

But my dear its only because you’ve gone astray
No, I don’t write to move you, stay where you are, because that’s where you deserve to be

Your leading down a path I can no longer follow
And Lord knows I’ve been made hollow

I will forgive you before you forgive yourself

No, I don’t claim to know what the Lord knows
I pray for it to come in drips
Gradually pushing me because I can’t take the shoving

Maybe I’ve forgiven you…
