I saw you today.
I didn’t mean to see what I saw, but I saw it and you cannot unsee that. I’m sorry.
I saw you with her and that just did not look right to me, and I know you will probably never understand why I feel the way I do.

As you walked away, my heart hammered a bit too hard in my chest and I realized something…

You are only a silhouette. An outlined piece of darkness.

Darkness is all you have ever been.
It took me eight sentences to understand that
(though I know you will still never understand me).

And for that, I am sorry.
