Realization

I know it's not intentional
I know it's not meant
But the fact remains
You've hurt me

I know there is love
I know you believe this
But the fact remains
You've betrayed my trust

I know this will hurt
I've thought about it too much
But the fact remains
You've lost me

It's not out of hate
It's not out of love
Call it quiet acceptance if you will

We may talk on holidays and birthdays
We may talk at funerals and christenings
But this rift between up
Is far too big, to be solved by words

So I forgive your misdeeds
And I forgive your failed promises
I forgive your suave words
And I forgive your cultured lies
Because this point I've reached
Is far beyond what words can fix
