I’m sorry you weren’t strong enough to walk away
from toxic situations, damaging altercation
leaving you with mental complication.
I’m sorry you didn’t listen to your intuition. It was
just a premonition in order to keep you in the
right position on your soul mission. Now the
universe has ordered a search and rescue mission.
I’m sorry you lied to yourself, lowered yourself
just to prove yourself now you hardly recognize
yourself.
I’m sorry you couldn’t stand up for yourself, your
truth, your voice, your strength still waiting,
collecting dust on a shelf.
I’m sorry for allowing negative thoughts to plague your mind,
couldn’t leave them behind, feeling so
confined, words so unkind, such an invisible bind,
mental contract you signed.
I’m sorry you cut your wrist, the pain you couldn’t
dismiss, your feelings always on a waiting list, left
with scars to reminisce.
I’m sorry you never experienced real,
unconditional love. Always deprived of, forever
dreaming of, feeling unworthy of.
I’m so sorry it took you so long to be ok. It
should’ve never been this way, a destructive
ballet, feelings downplayed, heart full of decay, so much foul play, life story so cliché.
But now its time to let everything fall away, choosing to
break away, file the past away as I ascend on this
new journey and start a new day.
Love,
Yourself
