I'm sorry.
I'm sorry that I was pretty
I'm sorry you thought you weren't
I'm sorry that I could smile
I'm sorry my happiness hurt
I'm sorry that I was good
I'm sorry you only knew bad
I'm sorry that I was right
I'm sorry for what I had
I'm sorry that I was healthy
I'm sorry that you were not
I'm sorry for getting to live
I'm sorry you got to rot
I'm sorry for not being you
I'm sorry for how I came to be
I'm sorry for not being good enough
I'm sorry for being me.
But are you?
Are you sorry that you are pretty?
Are you sorry that I feel ugly?
Are you sorry for getting to smile
By reveling in my misery?
Are you sorry for living good?
Are you sorry that I live in bad?
Are you sorry for winning the fight
And stealing all that I had?
Are you sorry that you are healed?
Are you sorry that I am not?
Are you sorry for getting to feel
As my mind turns me to rot?
You're not sorry for what you do.
You're not sorry for what I feel.
You're not sorry for being you
But I'm sorry–
even if you never hated who I am, even if you never breathed–
Trust that I'm so sorry for being me.
~~~~~~Author's Note~~~~~~
Hey guys!
Wow, I did not expect to get so much positive feedback on this.
Seriously, y'all you have no idea what this means to me. It's actually terrifying to write stuff like this, all personal and important, and post it for anyone to see, but when I see so many votes and sweet comments already, it gives me just enough in the ego-tank to post more.
So thank you!
Also, you may have noticed the similar titles between this and a book that I'm writing. Well, this poetry is not tied to that book in any way other than-
1. I'm writing them
&
2. This is the part of actual me that I like to sprinkle into June.
But, if you like this part of me and the theme of real life monsters and darkness in people, you should definitely check out WTMCOTP.
It shows you a little bit more of me, and everything I want to be. It also has romance and all kinds of drama that will (hopefully) get you hooked.
Anyways, that's all. Love yooouuuuu!❤️
