Forgive me for my apathy.
Forgive me for the way I sit there
quietly shutting down inside my mind.
Forgive me for running away from you
and not running to you.
Forgive me for distancing myself
when I don't know what to do.
Forgive me for not being
the partner I should be.
For not being your best friend
all the time.
For comforting myself before
comforting you.
Forgive me for being scared of
making the wrong move,
and for instead disappearing
into the recesses of myself.
I'll forgive you for caring too much,
for using all your energy to make me happy.
I'll forgive you for putting me first,
and putting yourself second to me.
I'll forgive you for tending to my every need,
for loving me unconditionally, no matter
how much it affect you.
I forgive you for doing all of this,
because I haven't done the same.
