I like it    I don't like it

I was away for a while

But I'm hoping someday you'll forgive me

But I don't deserve it

For scorning the face

Of absolute beauty

And measureless grace

And though I once mocked you

Were sure to destroy me

That seemed to carry me where I couldn't go

On the strength of my own

But I should've known

That that gets me nowhere

I've learned that now I swear

But still you allow me

To walk free of pain

Though I punish myself

I will never settle

The debts I've incurred

For scorning the face

Of absolute beauty

And measureless grace

And though I once mocked you-a
