My heart is slowly dying

by Beth - Scorpio

My hands have become fists
       my anger has a home in you
       I gave up everything it's true
my hands have become fists

my eyes are rimmed with tears
        I know it should be no surprise
        That I'm the one to compromise
my eyes are rimmed with tears

my heart is slowly dying
        my love for you eats it away
        tormented and in pain
my heart is slowly dying

but then you hold me in your arms
         you whisper in my ear
         those sweet words I need to hear
      "I'm Sorry"
         And I know I love you still
         As I always will
         And I know you love me too
         Because this is what we do
And then you hold me in your arms

Reason for writing:

    Because it's what we do.
