Until

There are things I wish I never said,
There are times I wish I never bled.
There are things I wish I never did to you,
And there are times when I wish letting go was true.

Your memory lingers with me,
There's not a moment I don't miss those months of honesty.
Around my finger lies a silver band,
And I cry to this day because I miss the touch of ones hand.

A little rougher now,
Is the wording, I'm not sure how.
I will keep you as my friend,
For longer than the end.

Until my blood runs dry,
Tears I will forever cry.
Until my voice no longer sounds,
I will go back and walk these grounds.

Until the lies no longer appear,
Trust is something I endure to fear.
Until your honesty returns,
The mere thought of smiling lingers but burns.

I see you walking there with her at your side,
And I have to wonder if to her too you have lied.
I do not doubt your love to the girl,
But will you cherish her as if your pearl?

For what you have done wrong,
For what you will become.
I forgive the lies, the broken promises, the forgotten kisses.
I will forgive what your web has formed you into,
And I'll be here,
Trying to help you through.
