I'm sorry that I never told you
that I liked him.
I'm sorry that there are secrets I've kept
to myself,
away from you.
I didn't want to hurt you.
I'm sorry that things worked out the way they did.
I don't want you to think that I stole him-
that I did this voluntarily-
because I didn't.
It's just...
my heart does things.
I can't control it.
I'm sorry if you think I'm a terrible person.
You didn't deserve this.
I'm sorry that the one you are trying to love right now doesn't love you.
And I'm sorry if you find that out right now.
I had to tell you.
I'm sorry that I couldn't find the words to tell you these things.
I'm so sorry. Really.
Forgive me.
