You talk about that day, and my gut wrenches. You say..you will never get over, the things he did to you. That you will always have fear; making my heart shatter ten fold.
How do I accept the burden, I placed on you? How do I face the mirror, knowing it was me, that did this...to you?
How can I be so selfish, thinking of how I have to live with this? How can you forgive me, and still tell me you love me?
How can I fix the biggest mistake I ever made? How do I live with this regret?
You're always so willing to forgive, and so right, to never forget. How can I ever make it up to you?
The only thing I can do...is to make you a promise.
A promise that I will never forget how I betrayed your trust. I will never forget the pain I caused you. I will never forget the burden you carry, because of me. I will never forget how awful of a sister I am.
A promise that I will always be there for you, the way I should have been. That I will never let anyone, including me, hurt you again.
A promise that I will honour to my death.
You may have forgiven me...but I could never forgive myself. I will always remember what I did.
I am the judge of my life, despite those who will judge me. My judgement is the only one I deserve, and with it, a life sentence of torture; remembering.
I do not deserve to forget. I do not even deserve your forgiveness. But I shall remain here in this world, spending my life, keeping my promise.
