I don’t know how you handle my complexity but thank God you do.
There are lots of secrets I’ve been trying to hide from you.
Starting from how things were ****** up even before we met
Unto now, where simple stuffs are getting me upset

You know what, if I were just good at explaining myself
I would have told you stories that deafens my head
Like how I badly pleaded for my life to end
Because I’m never good enough even for myself

To be honest, to you, why am I dedicating this poem?
You already got tons of my breakdowns to absorb.
Sorry honey, I’ve got no one listening to me
So please, I ask you to bare considerately

I wanted to apologize for the person I have become
For being someone whom I never imagined I’ll turn into
Always being a *****, selfish and imprudent
Trying to stay away from any possible harm

My past is never an excuse for me to treat you rudely
Still, I want to say sorry for pushing you away from me
I got a pile of fears and insecurities all over my body
I hope that you have the strength to tag me along with your journey
