seconds later you looked into my eyes
i don't know if you saw why i was really hurt
or what you had done
but something snapped.
"oh god... i'm so sorry
baby
i'm so so sorry"
you were an apologetic mess
you begged me to stay
you begged me
but
you didn't even need to
when you came down to hug me
i flinched
but i hugged you tightly
i embraced you and told you
"it's okay, it's okay
i still love you
it's okay"
i reassured you
i reassured your actions
and that was one of my biggest mistakes.
