Broken Hearts

She:

My love, I know I’ve hurt you

We both are hurt

But through the pain I’ve learnt

We can put this behind us

We’re chained together, husband and wife

Prisoners for life

And in this life to survive

Without so much grief

We’ve to make peace with each other –

Do you think you can forgive me?

He:

You ask for forgiveness?

How can I even consider it

And your lover is out there

Planning how to peel your clothes off the next time you meet?

I’ve gone through so much

My heart’s bleeding dry.

She:

Can’t we make one last difficult choice

To commit our hurt hearts to each other?

It won’t be that easy

And it’s nearly impossible

For we’re wrong to think we can save each other –

We can’t –

We can only love each other.
