I’m sorry
For doubting you
Your dreams, your beliefs
Your desires, your grieves
I’m sorry
for projecting fear on you
For taking one step behind
Because I thought about all the things
That could hurt you
But not all the opportunities that it could bring
I’m sorry
For not loving you enough
For hurting your body
And forgetting your soul
Leaving your mind empty
With everything foul
I’m sorry
For leaving you breathless
Tired eyes, weary sighs
You are more than you think
But I don’t tell you enough
I’m sorry for holding you back
Making you feel worthless
Ugly and sad
Losing your sense of inner beauty
Judging you, your outer seemed filthy
I’m sorry
I promise to love you better
So your heart will always be whole
- an apology letter to myself

A lot of the time, we blame others and we also blame ourselves. But it’s time to snap out of it. To learn from our mistakes, to get up, give ourselves a chance to improve and be better, not stay in the hole we dug for ourselves.
I wrote this letter to myself on 9th November last year. It’s not because I was feeling sorry for myself but because I became aware that I HAD to stop feeling sorry for myself, my situation, my downfalls, my mistakes but to rise above, saying sorry to myself shifted my perspective, and the thing that brought me to this awareness is the belief that the God I know has accepted and loves
me for all that I am, now I too can accept myself, all that I am and who I can grow to become.
Ask yourself what you have to do to get out of the hole you’re in, don’t focus on how you got in there anymore, definitely don’t stay or think you can get comfortable in there.. find a way out, there’s always a way out.
