Low

Today I look in the mirror,
and I see a tired face,
the promises I broke,
weigh on me like a legacy.
Your love was my refuge,
the light in my darkness,
but I fell into temptation,
and now it is my truth.
Forgive me, love, but
for the shadows I bring,
a moment of madness,
left me with this disappointment.
You were my sun,
and I was a fool without reason,
now I carry the weight,
of a betrayal.
I remember your smiles,
the nights by your side,
and a moment of weakness,
took me to the forbidden.
The words I did not say,
are drowned in my chest,
and although I search for courage,
I cannot find the way back.
Forgive me, love,
for the shadows I bring,
a moment of madness,
left me with this disappointment.
You were my sunshine,
and I was a fool without reason,
now I carry the weight,
of a betrayal.
