apology
i’m sorry that at one point:
i cared more about my fuck-up mother than myself
i cared more about those who did not love me
than i cared about those who did.
i’m sorry.
i’m sorry that at one point:
i cared more about your sister’s opinion
than i did about your feelings
i cared more about what other deemed right
than i did about what felt right
i’m sorry.
i’m sorry that at one point:
i wasn’t there for you
the way i should have been.
