All I want is love.
All I want is you.

You are what love is to me.
But you do not think the same.

Things fall apart,
Slowly crumbling into the ground.

I try and rebuild,
But you continue to tear down.





















All I want is your ears.
All I want is for you to listen.

Your ears allow you to learn.
Learn from your mistakes.

The past may be brought up,
But the present is what remains now.

You may choose to ignore,
But you must never disavow.





















All I want is your forgiveness.
All I want is a second chance.

Forgiving is for the strong.
I do not want you to be weak.

God forgives us,
Therefore you should forgive me.

I promise to be faithful,
As long as you give me a chance to be.
