Forgive Me for What I’ve Done
Oscar Auliq-Ice 1994 (Port Elizabeth)
I'm sorry for the pain I've caused,
For the hurt that I have brought,
My words and actions were not paused,
And now it's all for naught.
I never meant to cause you harm,
To bring you tears or make you ache,
I know my actions were alarm,
And for that, my heart does break.
I hope that you can find it in your heart,
To forgive me for what I've done,
And though we may be worlds apart,
My remorse will never be undone.
I'll do all that I can to make it right,
To make amends and ease your pain,
For your forgiveness, I will fight,
And I'll never make the same mistake again.
I'm sorry for the hurt I've caused,
And I promise to make it right,
For in my heart, your love is bossed,
And without it, my world is not bright.
