I wonder what the pages I left hanging feel.
All of the things I promised I would write on it — gone just like that.
Does it still have the faith in me?
Will it ever be able to trust someone else if they found it?
I feel sorry for those pages,
but I do have a reason!
I may not be the best person there is,
but I do wish for every page to be finished —
pages full of words, proud and filled.
But if I were to deliberately finish one
just for the sake of finishing it —
won't that be unfair to the page?
Therefore, I made a painful decision:
to leave it unfinished!
Unfinished it may be, so,
but at least it will still have the essence of something meaningful.
I hope the page forgives me
for what I took away from it.
But I never had a better choice.
After all,
it is my fault.
