we are past apologies
we are past 'new starts'
with flesh baring scars
and a bloodied heart
there's something i have to say
i wronged you
you stuck by me
never once lifted
your power above me.
i was showered with
bliss- material, or not.
your tshirts, your heart
it was all mine.
i wronged you
you stuck by me
stood up for me
when the world
cracked down its whip
you lifted me up from
the ground that bore
nothing but pain for me.
i wronged you
you stuck by me
when i became the devil
i had been running from
all my life.
i feared my reflection
in the mirror but you
kissed my lips everyday.
i wronged you
you stuck by me
i did not stick by you
for you, it was about us.
for me, it was about me.
i've been stuck in myself
all along.
untangling these memories
and wishing i could make amends
going back to that summer
for which i'd always pray never to end.
we are past apologies
we are past 'new starts'
with flesh baring scars
and a bloodied heart
there's something i have to say:
i wronged you.
