ACHES [Wattys Winner 2015]

Do yourself a favour

You asked for forgiveness,

You shattered my heart,

And then,

You asked for forgiveness.

I don't want to be the better human,

I don't want to tell you,

It is okay to hurt somebody.

I don't want to forgive you.

But still,

I will do.

'Cause I don't want to be the holder,

Of irreparable agony

From the consequence of a grudge.

'Cause I want you to be the bearer,

Of the gratitude,

From the consequence of my forgiveness.

So, I will forgive you,

In my own time,

I will forgive you.

But do yourself a favour,

Don't ask me to,

Trust you.

Not ever again!
