To the one who loved me but I was
Too stupid to know true love
Too young to handle such love
Too naive to reciprocate the love
Too scared to jump
To the one who loved me, this one is
For the bridges you burnt down for me
For the impossible you made possible
For all the sacrifices you made
For all the dates I stood you up on
For the times I threw stones and rocks at you
For the many times I created flaws to repute your efforts to loving me
For the important occasions and celebrations I was always absent
For the anniversaries you spent alone
To the one that loved me, thank you
For always celebrating me
For the support and compliments
For the ears that listened
For the eyes that saw but never told
For the mouth that never judged the ugly secrets I told and swallowed my insults
For all the hope you gave
To the one that loved me, I'm sorry
I tried to change you
I belittled your efforts
I doubted the worth of your love
I spat on your innocence
I dragged your love through hell
I gave up on your beautiful, tender heart
I played with your emotions
I ignored your decency to love and provide
I was always busy, looking for other loves, causing you to hurt in ways I never knew existed.
To the one who loved me
I hope you find a love that treats you right
I hope you find a love that gives you all you deserve, all the attention and encouragement you needed
I hope you find a love that loves you for who you are and is grateful that you exist
I hope you find a love that is real and strong enough to forgive all sins
I hope you find a love that would be committed and last forever which was what you've always wanted but I was too scared to try.
I hope your love finds peace
I hope you find a love that would give you love!
To my dear,
Old lover!
