i regret meeting them.
i regret falling in love with them.
i regret letting them leave me.
i regret losing touch with them.
i regret hating them.

i'm sorry for being rude.
i'm sorry for calling them mean things.
i'm sorry for obsessing over them.

i don't think about them much anymore,
but i still hate them.
i don't know why,
and it hurts.

i don't want to hate everyone who leaves me.

i don't want to be this way.

i want to forgive them,
i want them to know they don't have to be afraid of me.
what i said in past chapters means nothing.
i was filled with emotion and let it out in the form of text.

but i hope they know i don't truly hate them.
it's a front i put up,
a defense,
because i am insecure,
i'm afraid,
and i am so frustrated.

i'm frustrated over everything wrong that happens in my life.

like how i'm never the one to break up with a significant other,
because i simply love them too much,
and i'm too blind to notice their internal distress.

i hope that the next time they see me,
they are not afraid of me.
i hope they smile.
i hope they feel safe,
because they are.

i could never hurt another person.

i regret so many things,
but hating the person i loved for so long is one of the biggest regrets i have.
