Forgiving is love's toughest work, and love's biggest risk. If you twist it into something it was never meant to be, it can make you a doormat or an insufferable manipulator. Forgiving seems almost unnatural. Our sense of fairness tells us people should pay for the wrong they do. But forgiving is love's power to break nature's rule.
You never once apologized For deceiving me with all your lies For making me cry myself to sleep And for making promises you couldn't keep You never said those precious words For years now they've remained unheard Is "I'm sorry" so hard to say, Or will that take your pride away? Well, I'm sorry that you feel that way.
