Forgive Me Poem by Irene Edwards

People see I'm broken and bruised
When they ask me what's the matter
I just make up an excuse
I'm the reason our friendship
Is nothing from the choices that I chose.

You gave me so many chances but now you refuse
For losing you as a friend
Myself I accuse, myself I never amuse
Always messing up when I
Have something that's good.

You're a friend that I don't deserve,
That was the hardest lesson I had to learn.
I'm sorry for all the times that
I showed your mother disrespect
I've never felt so much regret.

Sorry for the feelings I
Hurt every time I spoke
Please don't think I played you out
I thought that no matter what I did
You would still stick around
As my very best friend.

Knowing that I hurt
You and your family
My heart just hit the ground
Especially knowing I lost my
Best friend in the whole world.

I know that I'll be replaced in no time,
I tell myself that I'll get
Over this pain in no time,
But I can't forget about our
Friendship and put it in the past.

There is still a part of me that
Believes our friend ship was meant to last.
