Rivers

Walking down the street
Rivers down my cheeks
Words rolled off my lips
Anger hid my best

Can you forgive?
Can you forget?

Choking up all day
Needing face to face
When it finally comes
A lion’s got my tongue

Can you forgive?
Can you forget?

I was a fool to walk away
To put that on your day
On your heart and brain
Or somewhere in our way

Can you forgive?
Can you forget?
