I forgive you for breaking my heart by accident.
I forgive you for forgetting about me.
I forgive you for the things you could do to hurt me, the things you might do.
I forgive you for the fact that you might not even come close to doing any of them because you may not even ever speak to me again.
I don't forgive myself for falling for you over the course of a few hours,
But I am working on it
Because I think I deserve my forgiveness, too.
I was angry for a long time-
It is my first line of defense.
I manufacture anger like armor,
And I live in it until I am healed enough to see the truth,
And the truth is I forgive you for not choosing me.
And I'll always forgive you
For whatever you do.
And I hope you do things.
No, not so that I can forgive you
But because if you are close enough to hurt me ever again it will mean that
*You
Are
Close.
