Forgiven
To be set free
from this guilt,
I couldn't help
but cry for you
Every day and night
for I couldn't save you
From the clutches of Death.
I only want that to be rewinded
So you shall live,
not I.
I have broken a promise
that I should have kept,
but now
I wish to be forgiven.
Please give me a sign
that I may be forgiven.
Please say these words to me
so that I know you have forgiven me

Hello, my name is Heather Caffey and I'll be your poet for today! I write everything from short and sweet to long and sad, so if you want something that's somewhere in between or all of them, well you're in the right place! Most of my poetry is based off of my thoughts and random little daydreams and rarely about the people around me or what is going on, though I do write some of those. Have fun with reading and have a slamming day!
