I’m Sorry


I know he hurt you
I know he made you feel inferior
I’m so sorry

It wasn’t your fault
There’s no reason for the pain you felt
Or the guilt that came with it

You’re better than what he showed
He walked all over you
He used you

And I know moving on is
The hardest part of it all
It’s easier said than done

We all make mistakes though
We all leave our hearts unprotected
Ready to be stolen from that one criminal

The criminal who will take it
Use it
And leave it

But realize it’s time to move on
Time to find someone you deserve
Someone who will love you like they should

This is to my best friend who has always been there for me in the toughest times. I hope you realize what a jerk he was, and that you deserve better.
