True Love I Loss

In between the past and the truth
Trying to restore
The one thing dear to me
That I destroyed
Seeking forgiveness
But time still moves
I sleep
And that much more
Distance grows
Making it harder
For me to drive my stake
Into a heart
Incorrectly healed
For it still holds
An area of forgiveness
If only I choose
Like a game of chess
The right move
To put me back in position
To show this woman
How much I loved her so
And to confess my wrongs
Like a dog
I ran away
But soon found out
The grass wasn't greener
And now I'm bitter
A false relationship I landed
And the woman I left
Still holding on
Barely
For soon someone special
Will come along
And give her what she deserves
True love
That myself
Couldn't give her
