Don’t Judge me!

I know I made the worst mistake of my life, but all it took was five years and now I’m back to make amends.

Love was never the intention, I did not see this coming at all,
And neither did I think it would come in a cowboy hat,

Blue eyes, blond hair and a smile that could set me on fire.

Keith  caught me completely unawares and now I’ve fallen deep in love.

What is wrong with me? Do I even deserve this? Deserve him?

If he knows what a monster I am, will he still stay?

I must be strong, I must focus on what I am here for.

I have a responsibility, and a chance to atone for my past sins.

But my present is Keith,

And I’ll be damned if I don’t have him in my future.
