Hurting You

18 5 8
                                    

I was scolding you,
getting mad at you
for the littlest of things.

You thought I wanted to hurt you,
take pleasure in your pain.
Rejoice at the fact you were hurting.

But that's not what it was.

I may have blushed
when you told me I was pretty.

And a part of me
doesn't know what to do with that.

All you've been is nice to me.
And all I've been is mean to you.

I hope you can forgive me,
I'm sorry for hurting you.
