She gave me her best

She gave me her best
love that she could offer,
I claimed I got the worst…
But It Was Never Her Fault…
 
I carried so many lies
anger ruled within me
I listened to Satan’s lies
I let him consume me…
 
She became the javelin catcher
every sling and arrow
a pin cushion, a dart board,
for my unforgiving rage…
 
I hate this truth
spoken in these words I am writing
but they are the honest truth
my sin against her…
 
She did not deserve any
of the I bile I uttered
I pray she will forgive me
for my great sin…
