Dear me,
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry that you tried
So desperately
To fix others, when your
Own hands were shaking.

I'm sorry,
That I didn't give you enough time to heal,
That I let you seal the wounds of
Everyone else
whilst your own were bleeding.

I'm sorry,
That there were days when
Smiling hurt
But you forced yourself to laugh
So that no one had to worry
About you.

I'm sorry,
That you gave all of your time
And effort to people that
Didn't give the same amount back.

I'm sorry,
That there were nights when
You cried yourself to sleep
And no one bothered to understand
Why.

And I am so sorry,
that I do not love you like
You deserve to be loved.
