Words Like Venom

My heart is full of pain Because I made you cry I promised I never would That turned out to be a lie I'm grateful I couldn't see you Or the pain on your face I'll count that as a blessing That God showed me grace Everything I said just worsened And I could feel my heart breaking Now you are having doubts about The path this marriage is taking I knew those words would hurt you They never should have left my head I'd give anything I could to take back Each and every word that I said Those words, they were like venom Into the phone, then your heart The only thing that they accomplished Was tearing this marriage apart Will this love that we share Ever again feel the same way? Will you trust me with your heart The same as you did before today?
