Remember those days

T, I still remember your smile, and your kiss, I know it's been a while, and probably too late to say this, but I want you to know  I haven't given you a second thought since then. We were stupid and so young, we had fun but if I'm being honest I'm glad we're done. After two years you finally apologized and acted as if that was enough. It used to hurt but now I feel nothing. You were so immature, you wouldn't be able to handle the person I'm becoming. I really cared about you but deep down I knew you'd never stay. It's been a while but I just wanted to say I remember those days.

G, I still remember your laugh, and our late night conversations. Used to be best friends but you started degrading. Warned you about him and you chose not to believe, but by now I hope you see, I wasn't wrong and I hope now you realize the pain you caused me. I tried to reach out but you left me on delivered, all that free time you left me to consider. Did I really still want you in my life after everything? I made my decision quickly. I thought what we had was real friendship and I hoped you would stay. It's been a while but I just wanted to say, I remember those days.

M, you broke my trust, in a way so tragic, said it was for love, but you know I'm fragile. Said you wanted to give me a friend somebody to talk to, can't forgive you now but I know I ought to. I thought I finally had somebody, in the end it was all for nothing. You broke my trust and you hurt me, it'll take a while but I just wanted to say, I remembered that day.

This poem is a lot longer than my others because it's dedicated to some of the people who've hurt me in the past. Hence the reason for the initials in the beginning of each section.
