Known You to Be Perfect

No Need to Apologize

By Nicholas GoodmanPublished 6 years ago 2 min read

I have always known you to be perfect.

Every second we spend together i see deeper into your being.

The complex threads of existence that you vibrate through allow me to see what your moving towards.

Love

But you don’t know the easy route, simplicity could not deliver a message

So you have tangled yourself in tales of what love is.

Of what love is supposed to be.

Maybe one day you will see all that you have done.

All the pain, suffering and fear caused by your presence, and i will present the idea that this is beautiful

You do not need to apologize, I have already forgiven you

Your mistakes are just your mistakes, failure is a thing you have created for yourself because you had a goal

Be sad, you have failed yourself

But do not suffer, do not allow yourself to dwell on the darkness slowly degrading your dear time here

Your misdeeds are momentous

They serve as reminders of where you were, and where you are

These failures may close off pathways into life you wish to proceed

But indeed there are many roads to take and mistakes to make

Don’t take your sadness with you to the grave

Be brave and take what you have now, and grow

Spread as far as you can.

You are afraid you might fall into darkness

So you stick to your current beliefs

These momentary comfort confirms your test of reason

But don’t fear, because wherever you are is where your supposed to be

I will let you fall as far as you wish

When you come to me in sadness, despair and terror, thinking all is lost, i will hold you

Comfort so deep it sinks in through your skin and within you feel okay

sobs of sorrow slowly slip from your soul

And you cringe inside thinking that this love i give you cost some great toll

You gasp “I’m sorry.”

Ah, my love

There is no need to apologize

I have already forgiven you
