Running into his arms
where gentle kisses await,
She attempted.
Longing to escape the shame
of smiles behind a mask,
He attempted.
Whispering words of love
Soothing the fumes of hatred,
She attempted.
Caged inside Fury
Of lies and deceit,
He attempted.
A thousand words of regret
Hoping for reprise,
She attempted.
Longing to forgive
without a tinge of guilt,
He attempted.
Parting words of goodbye
Tears of sadness flowing,
They attempted...
