I want to say I’m sorry,
for many reasons left unsaid,
I want to say I miss you,
and the life that we once led.
I want to be forgiven,
and forgive myself as well,
I want to hold my head up high,
and no longer sit and dwell.
How do you learn to love yourself,
after perfecting self-hate?
I want to shout ‘ I miss you so’,
yet knowing I’m too late.
So much time has already passed,
but one thing remains,
The thought of you brings warmth to me,
and that will never change.
We all make mistakes in life,
Lord knows I’ve made a few,
Please know that doesn’t change the fact,
I truly cared for you.
The love we shared may have been brief,
and now it’s just our past,
But the impact that you have left on me,
will forever last.
No matter where we go from here,
no matter where we’ve been,
What I miss most of all,
is not my lover, it’s my friend.
Dedication:
In memory of my sister, April.
