The Wrong That I Have Done



I can see the pain in your eyes
Always reminding me of what I've done
I, am a betrayer
I have caused you this pain
I have no excuse
I cant say it was just an accident
Because I know what I've done is wrong
I have no words to say
For some reason you don't  hate me
I wish that you would
Because just standing here, is killing me
You deserve better
That better should have been me
But it wasn't
I could say that I'm sorry
But those are meaningless words
No one loves a cheater
No one ever could.
