Time Frame

A one time offence
Is usually forgiven
A second time
Maybe not so much
But a third?
I guess it's true
That the
"Third time's the charm"

Three years past
First time offence
Maybe it was for the better
We all hurt
We cried
We wanted back our history
But it was gone

Nine months past
Second offence
It was for the better
It didn't hurt so bad
A single tear was shed
We moved on fairly quickly
We forgot the history
And it was gone

Five months past
Third offence
Definitely for the better
Hurt like a band-aid
Short and sweet
No crying this time
The days went by
The past didn't exist
Everything is gone
