[hometext] => 3rd in the trilogy, she awakens ready to forgive, forget, make-up and enjoy everything that comes with making up.
[bodytext] => Forgiveness in the Morning This has been a tear filled night for the pretty lady Who laid in fear all night long She needed so badly to tell him She was sorry to have treated him so wrong As the shower warms her body And the evil of the night is washed away She is determined to make it right Long before the end of the day She brushes her long beautiful hair And removes every tangle and knot Today her hair will be perfect She knows it will trigger a soft spot The road goes on forever As she cruises up the interstate She rehearses what she will say As she opens his front yard gate As she watches him working in the yard She is glad that he has not seen her yet “God he is beautiful”, runs through her mind She wants to continue to forget As he stands to face her His hands are dirty and rough But his face is lit up like a candle She cannot say, “I am sorry” - fast enough As he kisses her, all her fears are gone And he carries her through the house She can remember the first time It was at her parents’ place, she was quiet as a mouse “God! I love you,” they scream to each other They collapse into each other’s arms Tomorrow will come way too soon they realize Let’s pretend this our last night on earth, keep me safe from harm. No door closing quietly behind him No lonely shuffling down the long dark hall She crawls back into his bed and turns off the light She does not even see the shadows on the wall Copyright © 2001 Roland [comments] => 2 [counter] => 433 [topic] => 50 [informant] => IndyRenegade [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ApologyPoetry )
