Time, Tears, and Forgiveness

The guilt seeps through your back 

From where I used to plant kisses 

When I was your mmes

The heart that leaks

Used to only seek

For the days you called her name

You are to blame

The somber, unnerved expression

Comes from the confession

Oh how I miss

When you were mine

The clocks never ran out of time

I wish 

The kiss

Did not bring us

Time, tears, and forgiveness. 

The lingering crave

That the other woman gave

Too weak to resist,

I gave in and kissed

Dirty and shameful

It wasn’t painful

Aware what I was doing

And kept on pursuing

The filth lingered

Skin tingled

The warmth embraced me

Similar to she

I know she waits at home

For I that roams

A high some get addicted to

I never meant to hurt you
