"I Believe one can make a difference cuz' one man on a cross changed the world"
-Jonny Diaz


How could you put me through this again?
Do you really think you deserve my love?
After you left me alone in a cold and unforgiving world?
Do you expect me to forgive you when you were the one who abandoned me?
I was lost for so long in the dark,
I was lost in a world you truly belong.
How could you expect me to let you into my heart?
When you exiled me from yours,
My mind tells me to hate you for destroying me, for breaking me apart,
But my heart tells me to show you mercy, to teach you love,
,y heart says that you are forgiven.
