forgive

people can say sorry
but the scars remain
sixteen long years full of pain
every word was another cut
when something happens
they want to care
but did they care
when the cause of pain
was them

they're sorry now
that's what they say
i can forgive them
but my memories won't go away
my scars will still be there
my trust still gone
how can you forgive
people that's caused so much harm
