You’ve given me the apology that I needed years ago.
Too late, but thank you still…
Remembering it all now,
I’d say—you could’ve saved me.
You have cost me a lot.
A heartbreak that I didn’t want,
A chaos that I could’ve avoided,
A mistake that I brought to myself just because I trusted you with all my heart.
I was too naive to believe and trust that all love is gentle, yet, you’ve opened my eyes to the harsh realities of it.
I was so excited to share my life and dreams with you, but I was not prepared for the nightmare I had to go through.
You could’ve saved me the whole process of wondering why, waiting for you to come back, and at least give me the closure I knew I deserved.
I was hoping, praying, even begging heaven for your apology, thinking it might unbroken me…
But there was none. Instead, I had to learn to apologize to myself—for you.
I had to apologize and forgive myself so I could start picking up the pieces.
I had to apologize and forgive you so I can slowly move forward.
And for whatever reasons you have now, please save your apology to yourself—because more than anyone else—you needed that, more than I do.
