Sorry Doesn't Heal

Sorry doesn’t heal. You stood there with tears in your eyes, Trying to cover another lie. You whispered, “I’m sorry,” soft and low, Like that could mend what you broke. But every promise turned to dust, And every goodbye buried our trust. Words are easy when the damage is done, But broken hearts don’t come undone. Sorry doesn’t heal these wounds. It can’t bring back our yesterdays. It won’t erase the sleepless nights Or wash these tears away. You can say it a thousand times, But some scars refuse to fade. Love was stronger than your words. Sorry doesn’t heal. The Silence says what you never could. Some things are gone for good. I carried hope until it died With every truth you tried to hide. Now the blues are all I know, But they’re helping me let go. I don’t need revenge or another fight, Just the courage to leave tonight. I carry the lessons, not the pain, And never lose myself again. Sorry doesn’t heal this soul. It can’t rebuild what love let go. It won’t rewrite the tears I’ve cried or bring The dream back to life. I keep walking toward the light, Leaving your shadows behind. Some hearts break, some hearts reveal, That sorry doesn’t heal. No more empty words, No more broken promises. Only the truth And the blues that help me Heal.
