You can't mess everything up than just say sorry.

That doesn't magically take the pain away.

They say actions speak louder than words.

Your actions stripped away all my trust.

Your actions jeopardized us.

So when you say sorry, it's a start but it's going to take time for my heart to repair.

They say actions speak louder than words.

Your actions say so much more than those three words you so easily say each day.

I love You.

Your actions scream of lies and deceit.

Yet you say sorry as my confidence and trust fade away.

You asked me to stay.

Told me to please not throw everything away.

My doubts also stay.

My pain from your actions haven't faded away.

It's like I'm in the shadows watching as I go about my day.

Now the three words you so easily say.

I love you.

It's like a knife twisting away at the wound you made.

Pain that sits deeply.

Doubts that now constantly seep.

They say actions speak louder than words.

So can you fix a broken heart?

Patch the cracks that seep doubts and pain?

Perhaps with work and time I can find the trust that was lost.

So when you say sorry, and see me smile.

The smile that never reaches my eyes.

The eyes that cry tears you will never see.

Those three words.

I love you.

No longer mean the same to me.
