Because it's the Christian thing to do.
Yet, I wonder how I can forgive myself,
For even loving you.

The hurt and the pain I've caused you.
I'm sorry I can't say the same,
Because I will never forgive you.
You say that you forgive me.

Too give unto someone
When I cannot forget
When my obsession
Is that of hate
As I
