Failure

I'm a failure.
I'm the worst person to exist.
I failed you when you needed me most.
I'm sorry.

I'm so so sorry.
I'm a terrible friend.
I'm a terrible person.
It's all my fault.
I take the blame.

You have every right to hate me.
Just yell at me already.
Just get it over with.
Say you hate me.
Say you never want to see me again.

Stop pretending like I didn't hurt you.
Stop pretending it didn't pain you.
Just scream and curse at me.
Just do something goddamnit.

The guilt.
It just gets worse with every,
"No I'm sorry"
"It was my fault"
"I forgive you"

Just send me to hell.
Punish me.
Make me pay.
I can't forgive myself.
Why are you acting like nothing happened?!
